Caris LeVert DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Caris LeVert (wrist) will return from a one-game absence on Sunday versus Denver. LeVert couldn't play on Friday against Philadelphia due to wrist soreness but has shaken off the injury to jump back into action for a clash with the reigning champions. The 29-year-old has struggled in his most recent appearances, and Donovan Mitchell's return is bad news for him from a fantasy perspective, but the absence of Isaac Okoro (toe) should give LeVert some extra value. Okoro, who was hurt on Friday, has been downgraded from questionable to out.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Caris LeVert (wrist) is probable for Sunday's showdown with the Nuggets. Levert has battled wrist soreness throughout the season. But he sat out Friday's win over the Philadelphia 76ers because of it. However, he should be back on the floor versus the champs. Despite coming off the bench in most appearances, the 29-year-old has averaged 13.6 points and 5.3 assists this season. While he's not as productive as he was in Brooklyn, he's still worthy of a spot in any DFS lineup. With that in mind, LeVert's impending return should mean less work for Marcus Morris Sr., Georges Niang, and Sam Merrill.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Caris LeVert (wrist) won't be in the lineup on Friday versus Philadelphia. The team has downgraded LeVert from questionable to out as the 29-year-old battles a sore right wrist. LeVert has struggled badly in the most recent games and having some time off could even be good for him. Donovan Mitchell (nose) will be back on Friday, which will lessen the impact of LeVert's absence. Isaac Okoro and Sam Merrill could play bigger roles off the bench without LeVert, especially with Craig Porter Jr. (illness) also unavailable on Friday.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Caris LeVert will slide into the starting unit for Sunday's contest against Brooklyn. Per Chris Fedor of The Plain Dealer, Cleveland will use its 17th different starting five this season. LeVert replaces Dean Wade (personal) on Sunday. The former Nets player went off for 31 points in his only previous start this season, and he should see plenty of the ball again versus the Nets, with four regulars absent from the lineup.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Caris LeVert (elbow) has been upgraded from questionable to available for Tuesday's contest against Boston. The 29-year-old is returning to the lineup following a two-game stint on the sidelines. With Donovan Mitchell (knee) and Max Strus (knee) out, LeVert should get to play a prominent role offensively. He's done well this season against Boston, averaging 18.5 points in 29.0 minutes with 51.9 percent shooting.
