Porter started the Cavaliers' regular-season finale against the Wizards this past Sunday, when he played 28 minutes and finished with seven points, seven rebounds, four assists and one block in a 130-117 win. He'll revert to a bench role for Game 1 while the Cavaliers roll with a starting five of Donovan Mitchell, James Harden, Evan Mobley, Jarrett Allen and Dean Wade.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Off injury report for Saturday
Wade (ankle) isn't listed on the injury report for Saturday's Game 1 against the Raptors.
Wade was one of several key contributors who sat out Cleveland's regular-season finale, but he's set to return for the start of the playoffs. He averaged 5.7 points, 4.2 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 21.0 minutes per tilt over his final 10 regular-season appearances (all starts).

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Out for Sunday
Wade (ankle) won't play Sunday against the Wizards.
The Cavs will sit out their entire starting lineup for Sunday's regular-season finale, so guys like Max Strus, Jaylon Tyson and Craig Porter could see massive upticks in usage. This is just a maintenance day for Wade, so he should get cleared when the playoffs begin.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Plays 21 minutes in return
Wade (ankle) produced eight points (3-4 FG, 2-3 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal over 21 minutes during Wednesday's 122-116 win over the Hawks.
Wade took back his spot in the starting five Wednesday after he had missed the Cavaliers' previous seven games due to a sprained ankle. He took on a relatively standard minutes load in his return, so his playing time shouldn't be expected to dramatically increase over Cleveland's final two contests of the regular season. Through 58 appearances, Wade is averaging 5.8 points, 4.2 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.2 three-pointers in 22.4 minutes.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Returning versus Hawks
Wade (ankle) is available and starting in Wednesday's game against Atlanta, Serena Winters of FanDuel Sports Network Ohio reports.
Wade will suit up after missing the Cavaliers' last seven games because of an ankle injury. He will also start over Max Strus. In 36 starts this season, Wade has averaged 6.4 points, 4.4 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 0.3 blocks and 0.8 steals across 23.0 minutes.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Questionable for Wednesday
Wade (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's game against Atlanta.
The questionable tag is an upgrade to Wade's status and gives him a chance to end a seven-game absence due to a right ankle sprain. His return would likely create a bit of a logjam on the wing for the likes of Keon Ellis, Sam Merrill and Max Strus, especially if Jaylon Tyson (toe) also suits up.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Ruled out for Sunday

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Out at least three games
Wade (ankle) won't be available to play in the Cavaliers' upcoming three-game road trip, according to Law Murray of The Athletic.
The Cavaliers have upcoming games against the Jazz, Lakers and Warriors, but Wade won't suit up for any of those contests and therefore will extend his current string of absences to five games, at minimum. It's currently uncertain when Wade will be able to return from his ankle injury, and while he's out of commission, Keon Ellis and Max Strus should see an increase in playing time.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Listed out for Friday
Wade (ankle) is out for Friday's game against the Heat.
Wade will miss a second consecutive matchup while nursing a right ankle sprain. Sam Merrill started in his place Wednesday and should be considered the favorite to do so again Friday in Wade's place.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Ruled out for Wednesday
Wade won't play Wednesday versus the Heat due to a right ankle sprain, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Wade tweaked his ankle during his pregame routine, but the Cavs are calling it a precautionary absence, so there's a chance he could be available for Friday's rematch with Miami. Keon Ellis and Sam Merrill could see some extra minutes with Wade out Wednesday.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Scoreless in 19 minutes
Wade finished Thursday's 115-110 victory over Chicago with zero points (0-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt), seven rebounds and one assist in 19 minutes.
Despite the absence of Donovan Mitchell (eye), Wade wasn't able to take advantage of his opportunity with a microscopic usage rate. He remains a deep-league fantasy asset at best with averages of 6.3 points, 4.6 rebounds and 1.1 three-pointers in 21.2 minutes over his last seven games.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Notches 12 points
Wade posted 12 points (5-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt) and five rebounds across 26 minutes during Sunday's 130-120 loss to Dallas.
Wade remains a key part of Cleveland's rotation, but his fantasy upside is quite limited. Over his last five appearances, he's averaging 20.9 minutes per contest with 7.0 points, 4.6 rebounds and 1.4 assists on 51.9 percent shooting from the field.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Double-doubles in win
Wade supplied 13 points (5-9 FG, 3-6 3Pt), 10 rebounds, two assists and one block in 20 minutes during Monday's 115-101 win over Philadelphia.
Wade recorded his first double-double of the season, a welcome sight for anyone holding him in deeper formats. Despite having carved out a starting role, Wade has been far from a must-roster player, averaging just 7.1 points, 5.3 rebounds and 1.7 three-pointers in seven appearances over the past month.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Good to go Monday
Wade (ankle) is available for Monday's game against the 76ers.
As expected, Wade will suit up for a second consecutive contest following a three-game absence due to a right ankle sprain. Over six appearances since the All-Star break, the 29-year-old forward has averaged 6.2 points and 4.5 rebounds in 21.3 minutes per tilt.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Probable for Monday
Wade (ankle) is probable for Monday's game against the 76ers.
Wade returned from a three-game absence Sunday and logged 21 minutes with seven points and three rebounds. His ankle responded well, and the Cavaliers are anticipating that he will play the second leg of the back-to-back set.
