Unfortunately, it was in a 103-96 loss, but Mitchell did all he could — netting each of Cleveland’s final 22 points, including all of the team’s 18 in the fourth quarter. He recorded 36 of his 50 points in the paint. And this was during a game he temporarily exited due to an apparent knee injury, and he was visibly compromised, unable to showcase his elite athleticism during the…

Clark paced the Fever in a 79-76 loss to the Dallas Wings on the road, leading the way with 21 points and hit five threes on 13 attempts.

Aaron Boone is convinced batting leadoff has nothing to do with Anthony Volpe’s recent struggles. “Zero is the role [it has] I think,” the Yankees’ manager said before his team won the opener of a three-game series against the surprising Tigers, 2-1, in The Bronx on Friday night. Volpe, the second-year shortstop who got off to such a strong start this season, has hit the skids of late. He entered Friday slashing .262/.345/.390 with a .734 OPS, quality numbers that were better than what he posted as a rookie. But since he moved into the leadoff spot on April 10,…
