Caris LeVert's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Caris LeVert (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Tuesday's game against the Boston Celtics. LeVert was tagged as questionable ahead of this game due to left knee inflammation. The team has decided to hold him out which will result in his third absence this season. The absence of LeVert should mean more playing time for Ty Jerome and Georges Niang. Neither player is a reliable fantasy option, but it's worth noting that Jerome is coming off a 24-point performance during his last game. He might be worth a look as a streaming choice on Tuesday.

Cleveland Cavaliers shooting guard Caris LeVert (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Boston Celtics. He previously missed two games earlier in the season because of right knee soreness, but now he is dealing with inflammation in his left knee. With LeVert, along with Sam Merrill (ankle) and Isaac Okoro (ankle), all potentially sidelined, the Cavaliers might need to rely heavily on their bench players for Tuesday, leaving minutes on the table for Craig Porter, Georges Niang, and Ty Jerome.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Caris LeVert (knee) will return for Wednesday's contest against the Pelicans. The 30-year-old missed the Cavs' previous two games because of right knee soreness, opening the door for more minutes for Isaac Okoro and Sam Merrill. While Okoro should continue to start with Dean Wade (illness) and Max Strus (ankle) sidelined, LeVert's presence could lower his ceiling. Merrill, who had 12 points, five boards, and two steals in 27 minutes on Monday versus the Bucks, is still worth streaming in deeper fantasy formats.
