Mobley, a former USC standout, has also made his mark in the G League this season. He averaged 21.5 points, 8.7 rebounds, and 1.3 blocks per game for the Cleveland Charge, earning a spot on the G League All-Star Team. Mobley's talent and versatility were on full display in a game against the College Park Skyhawks, where he nearly recorded a triple-double. He scored 30 points, grabbed 12 rebounds, dished out 8 assists, and blocked one shot to lead the Charge to a victory.
