Donovan Mitchell said James Harden would "figure it out" following the Cleveland Cavaliers Game 2 loss to the Detroit Pistons.

Harden finished with 10 points in the game while missing 10-of-13 shots.

It's the second straight game where Harden finished with more turnovers than field goals made.

"He's James Harden; we're not sitting here worried," Mitchell said following Thursday's loss. "He's going to figure this out."

The Cavs were outscored by 15 points with Harden on the floor.

"Just missing shots," Harden said. "Second half, I think I took two shots, but the ball was moving. We're getting better shots. So just picking and choosing my spots and figuring out what works, what doesn't work, for the betterment of the team."

Cavs coach Kenny Atkinson took the blame for Harden's lack of involvement in the offense in the second half.

"Can't have our Hall of Famer taking two shots in the second half," said Atkinson. "I'll take that one."

Game 3 takes place on Saturday.
