Jarrett Allen has 25 points and 14 rebounds, Cavaliers beat Hawks 127-119

CLEVELAND (AP) — Jarrett Allen had 25 points and 14 rebounds, Donovan Mitchell added 22 points and a career-high 13 assists and the Cleveland Cavaliers beat the Atlanta Hawks 127-119 on Saturday night.

The Cavaliers built a 23-point lead in the first half of their first game since announcing that starting power forward Evan Mobley and former All-Star point guard Darius Garland will likely be out until February. Cleveland snapped a three-game losing streak.

Mobley, who is averaging 16.0 points and 10.5 rebounds, will undergo arthroscopic surgery Monday on his left knee. Garland is slated to have a procedure to repair his jaw, which was broken Thursday night in a collision with Boston’s Kristaps Porzingis.

Trae Young had 35 points and 10 assists for Atlanta, and Dejounte Murray scored 21 points. The Hawks have dropped six of seven. De’Andre Hunter had 18 points in his return from a three-game absence with right knee discomfort.

Allen had the highest-scoring quarter of his career with 17 points in the first — making eight field goal without a miss — and took advantage of the absence of Hawks center Clint Capela, who missed his first game of the season with left knee soreness.

Isaac Okoro scored 18 points and Dean Wade had 16 points as both moved into the starting lineup for Cleveland, which scored a season-high 41 points in the first quarter. Caris LeVert added 14 points off the bench.
