Cleveland Cavaliers DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
