Cleveland Cavaliers DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

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.

Cleveland Cavaliers point guardDarius 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.

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.
