Donovan Mitchell scored 41 points and the visiting Cleveland Cavaliers rallied past the Boston Celtics Friday night in an Eastern Conference showdown.

Donovan Mitchell had 41 points, including 12 in the fourth quarter, to help the Cleveland Cavaliers rally from 22 points down and stun the Boston Celtics 123-116 in the final regular-season meeting of the Eastern Conference’s top two teams.
