Cleveland Cavaliers star Evan Mobley is expected to miss two-to-four weeks due to a left calf strain, the team announced Saturday.

Mobley sustained the injury in the Cavaliers' 130-126 win over the Washington Wizards on Friday.

Cleveland is already without starting center Jarrett Allen.

Mobley was averaging a career-high 19.1 points, 9.3 boards, 4.1 assists, and 1.6 blocks across 25 appearances this season.

The USC product was coming off a strong 2024-25 campaign in which he captured his first Defensive Player of the Year award along with an All-Star nod and an All-NBA selection.

The Cavs sit seventh in the East with a 15-11 record.
