Cleveland Cavaliers

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (face) has been listed as available on the team's latest official injury report and will be wearing a facemask to protect his nose. The 27-year-old played in the team's last game against the Memphis Grizzlies and delivered 29 points, eight assists, four rebounds, three steals, one block, and three turnovers. The Cavaliers are still vying for playoff positions right now, so each one of their two remaining games is important. Mitchell will be heavily involved, as usual, so he could be a big-time DFS option heading down the stretch of the regular season.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (knee, nose) is listed as available on the NBA's official injury report ahead of Wednesday's game against the Grizzlies. Mitchell's health has been a topic of discussion lately, with many questioning his durability heading toward the postseason. With that said, the Cavaliers have won just three of their last 10 games, so they need the All-Star on the floor for the rest of the regular season. Fortunately, Cleveland has a favorable matchup on the horizon versus the 27-win Grizzlies. Yet, Mitchell could spend more time on the bench if the Cavs manage to build a decisive lead throughout the contest, which wouldn't be an ideal scenario as it relates to his DFS potential.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (knee) won't play on Sunday afternoon versus the Los Angeles Clippers. The multi-time All-Star was on the floor for Saturday's loss to the Lakers, logging a game-high 38 minutes and finishing with 10 points, seven assists, and three steals. But with the Cavs playing their second of back-to-back contests on Sunday, Mitchell will take a breather before presumably returning for Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Without Mitchell in the lineup, Darius Garland, Jarrett Allen, Evan Mobley, and Max Strus should benefit. Caris LeVert could also enter the starting lineup, with the 29-year-old averaging 16.0 points, 7.6 assists, 5.3 boards, and 1.3 steals in nine starts during the 2023-24 campaign.

Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Ty Jerome (ankle) will remain unavailable for Saturday's contest against the Lakers. He underwent arthroscopic surgery on his right ankle in January, and it's unclear when Jerome will be game-ready again. The 26-year-old has made only two appearances for the Cavaliers since signing as a free agent last offseason, logging 15 total minutes. When he's eventually back in the lineup, he'll be the third-choice point guard behind Darius Garland and Craig Porter Jr..

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Isaac Okoro (toe) will miss a fourth straight contest on Saturday against the Lakers. He's been kept off the court by a toe sprain. The versatile talent will get the next opportunity to return on Sunday when Cleveland faces the Clippers. Okoro's absence gives Georges Niang and Sam Merrill a chance to figure more prominently in the rotation, but they are seeing very inconsistent playing time. Caris LeVert will continue to lead the second unit on Saturday. It's a tough matchup against a team that has limited opposing benches to 45 percent shooting.
