Evan Mobley DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Evan Mobley (rest) will not suit up for Thursday's game against the Indiana Pacers. The team has nothing left to play for in the regular season and will give Mobley some time off to rest. He will be joined on the sidelines by Darius Garland (toe), Donovan Mitchell (ankle), and Max Strus (knee), meaning the Cavaliers will head into action without four of their regular starters. Players such as Ty Jerome, Sam Merrill, De'Andre Hunter, and Dean Wade are set to play more prominent roles in the rotation.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Evan Mobley will sit out Thursday's contest against the San Antonio Spurs. Cleveland is cruising at the top of the Eastern Conference and has begun resting its key players, and it has given the team a chance to rest one of its key players in Mobley. De'Andre Hunter and Dean Wade will compete for Mobley's starting position on Thursday. Wade's game doesn't translate well to fantasy, so managers should focus on Hunter, who averaged 24.5 points against the Spurs in two meetings when he was still a member of the Atlanta Hawks earlier this season.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Evan Mobley (foot) will play on Tuesday versus the Clippers, barring a pregame setback. He wasn't available for Sunday's loss to the Orlando Magic because of a foot injury. As a result, De'Andre Hunter entered the starting lineup, finishing with nine points and five boards. While Hunter will still see minutes from off the bench, he may have a tough time getting it done for fantasy managers with Mobley, Donovan Mitchell, Darius Garland, and Jarrett Allen on the floor.
