After Cleveland's loss to the Phoenix Suns on Friday night, the Cavaliers have now lost four in a row. Donovan Mitchell got honest after the game and shouldered much of the blame for how the team has been playing over the last week.

Mitchell knows that doubt and criticism comes with the territory, and he is embracing the challenge and spotlight. During his post game media availability, Mitchell stated that he knows a brighter lens will be shined on the losing streak because of the Cavs’ historic season.

The Suns have won three straight and four of five, while the Cavs have lost four in a row since their 16-game winning streak ended.

Kevin Durant scored 42 points, including a clutch 3-pointer that helped snuff out a late Cleveland rally, as the host Phoenix Suns scored their third straight win with a 123-112 defeat of the Cavaliers on Friday.
