Evan Mobley's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Evan Mobley (calf) won't play on Friday against the Philadelphia 76ers. The 23-year-old logged only 50 games in 2023-24. But he missed only two of the Cavs' first 40 games this season, giving fantasy managers hope he would remain on the court. Unfortunately, Mobley has been sidelined for the last three contests because of a calf strain, and it's unknown how much longer he'll be on the shelf. He has averaged a career-high 18.6 points with 8.8 rebounds and 1.4 blocks during the 2024-25 campaign, so this is not an ideal scenario for fantasy managers. With that in mind, until Mobley returns, Max Strus, averaging 7.0 points, 3.5 assists, and 1.0 steals in two starts this season, will likely remain with the first five.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Evan Mobley (calf) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Houston. He is forced to miss a third straight game due to a right calf strain. Caris LeVert (wrist) and Max Strus have shared starts during Mobley's absence. LeVert has also picked up an injury and is questionable for Wednesday's game. This means Strus will likely remain among the starters, though he recorded only nine points, two rebounds, and two assists on Monday versus Phoenix. An ankle injury has limited Strus to 14 appearances this season, and he has been far from his best, averaging 7.6 points while shooting 39.8 percent from the field.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Evan Mobley (calf) has been ruled out of Monday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Mobley strained his right calf against the Thunder on Thursday night and was forced to miss Saturday's game against the Timberwolves as well. The 23-year-old has been a big piece of Cleveland's success this season, averaging 18.6 PPG and 8.8 RPG. In his absence, expect Jarrett Allen to get more usage in the starting lineup. Also expect Caris LeVert to be inserted into the starting lineup while George Niang should get more minutes off the bench. Niang grabbed 10 rebounds on Saturday while putting up 15 points. Niang should be a sneaky DFS play on Monday.
