Jaylon Tyson Sidelined On Tuesday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Jaylon Tyson (knee) has been ruled out of Tuesday's matchup with the Portland Trail Blazers due to a knee injury. Tyson is set to miss his third consecutive contest due to left knee soreness. He hasn't been playing much lately, so his absence won't have a huge impact on the Cleveland Cavaliers. This season, Tyson has been averaging 3.0 points, 1.9 rebounds and 0.9 assists.

Donovan Mitchell Unavailable Against Portland

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (groin) will not suit up for Tuesday's clash against the Portland Trail Blazers. He has been ruled out for groin injury management purposes. Ty Jerome, De'Andre Hunter, and Isaac Okoro are expected to fill larger roles with Mitchell unavailable. The latter started in Mitchell's place in back-to-back games when he was out earlier this month with a groin injury. However, Jerome and Hunter are definitely the better fantasy options, as Okoro struggles to fill the stat sheet even if he logs 30-plus minutes.

Darius Garland Set To Return On Friday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland (rest) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Friday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Garland will be back in action after sitting out of Wednesday's contest for rest purposes. It's that time of the season where the top tier teams will likely rest their starters to keep them fresh for the postseason. The expectation is that Garland will have his normal role in the rotation on Friday. That being said, Dean Wade and Ty Jerome will probably take a step back which should hurt their streaming appeal.

Darius Garland Out Of Action Versus Kings

Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Darius Garland (rest) is unavailable for Wednesday's contest with the Sacramento Kings. On Tuesday, Garland posted 17 points, eight assists, five rebounds, and two steals in 32 minutes against the Clippers. The 32-year-old will have the night off to rest for the second set of back-to-back games. He will likely return to the floor for Friday's matchup with the Suns. Isaac Okoro and Ty Jerome could see extra minutes this evening with Garland on the shelf.

Evan Mobley Will Play On Tuesday, Barring A Setback

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Evan Mobley (foot) will play on Tuesday versus the Clippers, barring a pregame setback. He wasn't available for Sunday's loss to the Orlando Magic because of a foot injury. As a result, De'Andre Hunter entered the starting lineup, finishing with nine points and five boards. While Hunter will still see minutes from off the bench, he may have a tough time getting it done for fantasy managers with Mobley, Donovan Mitchell, Darius Garland, and Jarrett Allen on the floor.

Evan Mobley Listed As Questionable For Tuesday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Evan Mobley (foot) may sit out a second consecutive game on Tuesday against the Los Angeles Clippers, as he has been listed as questionable on the injury report. The talented big man is trying to overcome a right foot contusion. If Mobley can't return on Tuesday, De'Andre Hunter will likely remain in the first unit. He had a bad time against the Orlando Magic on Sunday, notching only nine points on 2-for-11 shooting, but it has been a good campaign for Hunter. The former Atlanta Hawk is averaging a career-high 17.6 points, despite being a starter in only eight of his 51 appearances.

De'Andre Hunter Starting On Sunday Afternoon

Cleveland Cavaliers forward De'Andre Hunter will start on Sunday versus Orlando. The 27-year-old is in the running to win the Sixth Man of the Year award. Yet, with Evan Mobley (foot) sidelined, Hunter will roll with the first five against the Magic, with the 2019 No. 4 overall pick averaging 18.3 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 50.0% shooting from deep in seven starts during the 2024-25 campaign, giving him added value for fantasy managers.

Evan Mobley Won't Face Orlando On Sunday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Evan Mobley (foot) won't play on Sunday against Orlando. He had 22 points, 11 rebounds, and two blocks in Friday's win over the Grizzlies. But he'll sit this one out because of a foot contusion. Donovan Mitchell (groin) is cleared to suit up after missing the last two games, so that will help lessen the blow. There should also be room for Ty Jerome and De'Andre Hunter to see more minutes and involvement.

Donovan Mitchell  • SG  •  Cavaliers

Donovan Mitchell Returning Versus Orlando

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (groin) will return from a two-game absence for Sunday's matchup with the Orlando Magic. The 28-year-old has battled a sore groin. However, it didn't stop the Cavaliers from extending their win streak to 16 games. De'Andre Hunter and Ty Jerome got some extra work while Mitchell was out, with Darius Garland and Evan Mobley (foot) carrying most of the load offensively. But with Mobley ruled out, there's still room for at least Hunter to remain involved from off the bench.

Donovan Mitchell  • SG  •  Cavaliers

Donovan Mitchell Questionable Against Orlando

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (groin) is questionable for Sunday's matchup with the Orlando Magic. The 28-year-old has missed the last two games because of groin soreness. Yet, the Cavaliers have been just fine without him, with the team winning the last 16 games. If Mitchell doesn't make it back on Sunday, Evan Mobley (foot), who is questionable, and Darius Garland, combining for 42 points in Friday's win over the Grizzlies, will likely remain the Cavs' top offensive producers. De'Andre Hunter and Ty Jerome should also be more involved on the scoring end from off the bench.

De'Andre Hunter  • SF  •  Cavaliers

De'Andre Hunter Returns To Action Against Grizzlies

Cleveland Cavaliers forward De'Andre Hunter (illness) will rejoin the lineup for Friday's tilt against the Memphis Grizzlies. The talented scorer has recently battled an illness but is ready to return to action after sitting out one game. Hunter has averaged 14.3 points and 4.3 rebounds in 24.9 minutes with the Cavaliers since coming over from Atlanta. He may be used more offensively against the Grizzlies, as Donovan Mitchell (groin) will not be available for the contest.

De'Andre Hunter  • SF  •  Cavaliers

De'Andre Hunter Tagged As Probable For Friday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward De'Andre Hunter (illness) is listed as probable ahead of Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Hunter appears to be ready to get back in action following a one-game absence due to an illness. The Cavs are going to be without Donovan Mitchell (groin), so Hunter could be asked to take on a bigger role on Friday. The 27-year-old is worth a look as a streaming option, assuming he's cleared to play on Friday.

Donovan Mitchell Ruled Out For Friday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (groin) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Mitchell will miss his second game in a row due to left groin soreness. The Cavs are in good enough position playoff-wise that they don't need to push Mitchell out there if he isn't 100 percent healthy. Isaac Okoro figures to remain in the starting five for at least one more game. He finished with six points and five rebounds across 32 minutes on Tuesday. It doesn't appear that the extended playing time is going to make Okoro a viable fantasy option.

Ty Jerome  • PG  •  Cavaliers

Ty Jerome Out On Tuesday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Ty Jerome (rest) will miss Tuesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets for rest purposes. Jerome will get an extended rest with the Cavs out of action until Friday after tonight's contest. Donovan Mitchell (groin) and De'Andre Hunter (illness) are also sidelined, meaning players like Max Strus, Sam Merrill, Craig Porter, and Jaylon Tyson will likely see increased roles for Tuesday's home matchup against the Nets.

De'Andre Hunter Sidelined Versus Nets

Sam Amico of HoopsWire.com reports that Cleveland Cavaliers forward De'Andre Hunter (illness) won't suit up against the Brooklyn Nets on Monday due to an illness. Hunter will be out of action for the first time since he was traded to the Cavs on February 6th. With Donovan Mitchell (groin) and Ty Jerome (rest) also unavailable, Dean Wade, Sam Merrill and Isaac Okoro will likely see more minutes on the floor for this evening's matchup with the Nets.

Donovan Mitchell Ruled Out Versus Brooklyn

Sam Amico of HoopsWire.com reports that Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (groin) has been ruled out for Tuesday's contest against the Brooklyn Nets. Although his left groin injury is not considered serious, the Cavs are being cautious with their 28-year-old star guard. While Mitchell is out of action against Brooklyn, plenty of scoring opportunities and extra minutes should be available for Isaac Okoro and Sam Merrill. On Friday, Mitchell will likely return to Cleveland's rotation against the Grizzlies.

Donovan Mitchell Returns To Action Against Bulls

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (rest) will return to the lineup on Tuesday against the Chicago Bulls. The team has not listed him on the injury report. Mitchell skipped Sunday's action against the Portland Trail Blazers for rest purposes. De'Andre Hunter received an opportunity to start and led all scorers with 32 points in a 133-129 win. He might remain part of the first unit on Tuesday, as Cleveland will rest Evan Mobley against the Bulls.

Evan Mobley Taking The Night Off On Tuesday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Evan Mobley (rest) won't play on Tuesday against Chicago. Fortunately, he's not injured. But the 2021 No. 3 overall pick will take the night off to rest before likely returning for Wednesday's matchup with the Miami Heat. Without Mobley on the floor, Donovan Mitchell, Darius Garland, and Jarrett Allen should all see more scoring opportunities. The same could apply for De'Andre Hunter, who will likely enter the starting lineup. Ty Jerome, coming off a 25-point effort in Sunday's overtime win over Portland, should also remain more involved off the bench.
Mar 4   
Darius Garland  • PG  •  Cavaliers

Darius Garland Considered Questionable For Tuesday

Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Darius Garland (hip) once again carries a questionable tag on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's clash against the Orlando Magic. He was also considered questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Memphis Grizzlies and was eventually ruled out. Isaac Okoro stepped into the starting lineup as Garland's replacement, though Ty Jerome benefitted the most from his absence. Jerome matched his third-highest scoring output of the season with a 26-point effort. He will likely handle extra offensive duties again on Tuesday if Garland remains out.
Feb 25   
Jarrett Allen  • C  •  Cavaliers

Jarrett Allen Available Versus Grizzlies

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (finger) will play in Sunday's matchup against the Memphis Grizzlies. The tenacious big man injured his right index finger in the previous game against the New York Knicks, logging only 20 minutes, but fortunately, he will not be forced to miss additional time. Allen has been a big part of Cleveland's success this season, averaging 13.6 points and 10.4 rebounds with 70.6 percent shooting from the field. On Sunday, Allen may have more success offensively than usual, as Memphis allows the eighth-most points per game to opposing centers.
