Ty Jerome DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Ty Jerome had a rough outing in Game 2 against the Indiana Pacers on Tuesday, shooting a horrible 1-for-14 from the field to finish a 120-119 loss with two points. Jerome took Sam Merrill's spot in the starting unit and struggled right out of the gate, with Pacers center Myles Turner blocking a pair of his shots. The 27-year-old made his only field goal early in the third quarter. He finished 0-for-4 from outside and had two rebounds and four assists in 28 minutes. With Darius Garland (toe) injured, Jerome must do much more for the Cavaliers, who are now in an uncomfortable 2-0 series hole after losing two home games.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Ty Jerome had 21 Points in Sunday's loss to the Indiana Pacers. He added eight assists and one steal. Darius Garland (toe) remained out for this one, so Jerome continued to get more opportunities to produce, with the 27-year-old and Donovan Mitchell combing for 50 shot attempts on the night. Garland may be back for Game 2 on Tuesday. However, he could be limited if he does return. Still, it's hard to imagine Jerome staying as involved on the scoring end, regardless of Garland's status.

Cleveland Cavaliers guardTy Jerome(knee) will miss Friday's contest against the New York Knicks due to left knee injury management. Jerome will be out for the second half of back-to-back games after finishing with 24 points, six assists, two rebounds, and one block in 26 minutes against the Pacers on Thursday. The Cavs will likely rest several players for their last two games as they prepare for the playoffs. Jerome's last chance to suit up is during the team's regular season finale on Sunday afternoon versus the Pacers.
