Cleveland Cavaliers guard Caris LeVert (wrist) was a late addition to the Cavs' injury report for their Monday matchup with the Suns, and he was downgraded to out an hour before tip-off. LeVert started on Saturday with Evan Mobley (calf) out, but now he'll join Mobley and Isaac Okoro (shoulder) on the sidelines. In his absence, Max Strus and Ty Jerome will be strong DFS streaming options. Jerome had a great game with 15 points, four rebounds, four assists, and one steal against the Timberwolves on Friday. Especially with LeVert out as well, Jerome will be in a strong spot Monday afternoon.
Cleveland Cavaliers forward Caris LeVert (wrist) has been added to the injury report on Monday afternoon with what they're calling right wrist soreness. Since the Cavaliers are playing a mid-afternoon game, this late of a reported injury doesn't seem like a good sign. He went straight to a questionable status, so fantasy managers will likely want to go with a backup option. Since Isaac Okoro (shoulder) is also sidelined, Max Strus and Ty Jerome could serve as streaming options. The latter posted 15 points, four rebounds, four assists, and one steal in their last outing against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
Cleveland Cavaliers forward Evan Mobley (calf) has been ruled out of Monday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Mobley strained his right calf against the Thunder on Thursday night and was forced to miss Saturday's game against the Timberwolves as well. The 23-year-old has been a big piece of Cleveland's success this season, averaging 18.6 PPG and 8.8 RPG. In his absence, expect Jarrett Allen to get more usage in the starting lineup. Also expect Caris LeVert to be inserted into the starting lineup while George Niang should get more minutes off the bench. Niang grabbed 10 rebounds on Saturday while putting up 15 points. Niang should be a sneaky DFS play on Monday.
