Caris LeVert Doubtful Versus Atlanta

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Caris LeVert (wrist) is doubtful ahead of Saturday's matchup with the Atlanta Hawks. The injury isn't anything new. However, he'll now miss his first game since December 23. The Cavs will also continue to operate without Darius Garland (jaw) and Evan Mobley (knee), so scoring chances will be up for grabs. Of course, Donovan Mitchell will remain the primary scoring option. But guys like Jarrett Allen, Max Strus, and Isaac Okoro should also continue to benefit from a statistical standpoint.

Caris LeVert Lands On Injury Report

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Caris LeVert (wrist) is listed as questionable ahead of Wednesday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. LeVert finds himself on the injury report due to right wrist soreness. He looked fine during his 30 minutes of playing time against the Chicago Bulls on Monday. The expectation is that LeVert will play, but fantasy managers will have to check back for another update. The Cavs would likely use a committee approach between Sam Merrill, Craig Porter Jr. and Emoni Bates. Merrill might have some deep league value with an expanded role in the rotation.

Evan Mobley Improving

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Evan Mobley (knee) went through a conditioning workout before Monday's 109-91 win over the Chicago Bulls, and he hasn't faced any setbacks with his projected six-to-eight-week recovery timetable from arthroscopic surgery on his left knee. The Cavaliers held Mobley out for four straight games due to injury management for the issue, but they later announced on Dec. 15 that he required a procedure to remove loose bodies from his knee. Mobley has been sidelined for about four weeks and remains out indefinitely, but he is progressing. The 22-year-old former No. 3 overall pick will need to be cleared for basketball activities before any return to game action, so it may not be reasonable to expect him back before January's end. Jarrett Allen has really gotten going in Mobley's absence, averaging 18.1 points, 13.2 rebounds, 3.9 assists, and 2.4 combined steals plus blocks over 13 games since Dec. 16.

Darius Garland Resuming Basketball Activities

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland (jaw), who has been out since Dec. 15 due to a fractured jaw, has received clearance to resume basketball activities. It's great news for patient fantasy managers and Garland, who was also a limited participant in pregame warmups before Monday's 109-91 win over the Chicago Bulls. Garland is expected to incrementally ramp up his activity over time, so he is likely to need about one week for a return to game action. The Cavaliers begin a four-game road trip on Saturday that ends on Jan. 26, and while it remains to be seen if the 23-year-old star playmaker will travel with them during that stretch, Garland should be able to rejoin the lineup by January's close. Caris LeVert should be held onto until then, averaging 18.0 points, 4.9 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 2.5 treys, and 1.0 steals in 27.4 minutes in 12 appearances off Cleveland's bench since Dec. 16.

Max Strus Upgraded To Active On Monday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Max Strus (knee) has been upgraded and will play on Monday night against the Chicago Bulls. The 27-year-old was only able to play around seven minutes in their last game against the Brooklyn Nets. This comes as great news since Darius Garland (jaw) remains sidelined. Strus will also remain in the starting five along with Donovan Mitchell, Isaac Okoro, Dean Wade, and Jarrett Allen. He hasn't been delivering the same fantasy output that he was giving through the beginning of the season, but he should see a little boost against a weaker opponent and added minutes. Strus can still be started in 12-team leagues right now.
