Cavaliers' Lonzo Ball: Ruled out for Sunday
Ball (injury management) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Clippers.
Ball will sit out the first night of the Cavaliers' back-to-back set due to left knee injury management, and his next opportunity to play will come Monday against the Raptors. With the 28-year-old point guard joining Sam Merrill (hand) and Craig Porter (hamstring) on the sidelines, Jaylon Tyson and Tyrese Proctor are candidates for an uptick in playing time.

Cavaliers' Lonzo Ball: Cleared to face Grizzlies
Ball (injury management) is off the injury report for Saturday's game against the Grizzlies.
Ball got the night off Thursday during the second end of a back-to-back set -- a regular occurrence for the 28-year-old guard -- but he'll be back for Saturday's contest. With Darius Garland (toe) and Jaylon Tyson (concussion) sidelined, Ball should see a larger role against Memphis.

Cavaliers' Lonzo Ball: Scores 15 with eight dimes
Ball notched 15 points (4-8 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, eight assists, one block and one steal in 20 minutes during Wednesday's 130-116 win over the Heat.
Ball got the start due to the absences of Darius Garland (toe) and Donovan Mitchell (rest), and he delivered a well-rounded performance while ending just two assists away from a double-double. Ball should return to the bench if Mitchell moves back into the lineup Thursday against the Raptors in the second leg of this back-to-back set, but the former might still have some upside as long as his minutes continue to hover around the 20-25 range.

Cavaliers' Lonzo Ball: Won't play Thursday
Ball (injury management) won't play Thursday against the Raptors.
Ball has yet to be cleared for back-to-back sets, so this is an expected update. He fared well Wednesday night against the Heat, producing 15 points (4-8 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, eight assists, one block and one steal in 20 minutes. Tyrese Proctor and Craig Porter could pick up some run in Ball's absence Thursday.

Cavaliers' Lonzo Ball: Starting Wednesday
Ball is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game in Miami.
With both Darius Garland (toe) and Donovan Mitchell (rest) unavailable for Wednesday's game, Ball will draw the start, and he'll be joined by Sam Merrill, Dean Wade, De'Andre Hunter and Jarrett Allen in the first unit. Ball has struggled to make an impact this season, so it'll be interesting to see what he can do in a starting role with little depth behind him.

Cavaliers' Lonzo Ball: Scores nine points in 20 minutes
Ball contributed nine points (3-7 FG, 3-7 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one steal in 20 minutes during Monday's 140-138 overtime defeat to the Heat.
Ball saw a season-low in minutes despite the game going to overtime and Darius Garland exiting early after aggravating his toe injury, so it doesn't look like the former's role will change much with Garland going down again. Ball has been disappointing this season, averaging 5.1 points and 5.1 assists in 23.4 minutes per game, which has him ranked well outside the top 200 in fantasy leagues.

Cavaliers' Lonzo Ball: Available Saturday
Ball (knee) has been cleared to play in Saturday's game against the Bulls.
After missing Friday's game due to a knee issue, Ball will return to action. The veteran guard is currently averaging 5.0 points, 3.9 rebounds, 5.7 assists and 1.0 steals per game while shooting 29.3 percent from the floor and 25.8 percent from three-point range.

Cavaliers' Lonzo Ball: Sitting out vs. Wizards
Ball (knee) is out for Friday's game against Washington.
The Cavaliers will hold Ball out of action for left knee injury management. The veteran floor general figures to be back in the lineup for the second half of a back-to-back set Saturday against the Bulls. With Ball sitting out Friday, the door is open for Craig Porter to handle the backup role at point guard.

Cavaliers' Lonzo Ball: Retreating to bench Sunday
Ball is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Hawks.
Ball made his first start as a Cavalier on Friday and performed well, but he'll shift back to the bench with Donovan Mitchell (hamstring) returning from a one-game absence. The UCLA product should still play plenty off the bench, having logged at least 22 minutes in all five of his appearances this season.

Cavaliers' Lonzo Ball: Five dimes in first start of 2025
Ball tallied eight points (3-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt), five assists, five rebounds and one steal over 26 minutes during Cleveland's 112-101 loss to Toronto on Friday.
Ball made his first start of the regular season Friday due to the absences of Donovan Mitchell (hamstring), Darius Garland (toe) and Sam Merrill (hip). Ball scored all eight of his points in the third quarter as he took a back seat offensively to Evan Mobley (29 points), De'Andre Hunter (26) and Jaylon Tyson (18). While Ball isn't known for his scoring, he has registered at least five assists in each of his five outings this season. He would likely return to the bench if Mitchell and Garland were to return Sunday against the Hawks.

Cavaliers' Lonzo Ball: Starting Friday
Ball will start in Friday's game against the Raptors, Serena Winters of FanDuel Sports Network Ohio reports.
With Donovan Mitchell (hamstring), Darius Garland (toe) and Sam Merrill (hip) all sidelined, Ball will get the starting nod for the first time this season. The Cavaliers have been cautious with the 28-year-old point guard's playing time due to his extensive injury history, and he'll remain on a minutes restriction Friday, according to Ethan Sands of The Cleveland Plain Dealer. Over four regular-season games, Ball has averaged 4.8 points, 6.0 assists and 3.8 rebounds in 23.5 minutes per game.

Cavaliers' Lonzo Ball: Off report for Wednesday
Ball (injury management) is off the Cavaliers' injury report for Wednesday's game against the Celtics.
Ball sat out Monday's win over Detroit -- the second game of a back-to-back set -- but is set to return to action against Boston. Through three regular-season appearances, the 28-year-old guard is averaging 5.3 points, 6.3 assists, 4.0 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 23.0 minutes per game.

Cavaliers' Lonzo Ball: Will rest Monday
Ball (injury management) will not play Monday against the Pistons.
Monday's game is the second leg of a back-to-back set, and Ball has not been cleared to play in both games of these. That's likely to remain the case indefinitely. Ball looked sharp Sunday, as he produced 11 points (4-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-3 FT), six rebounds, five assists and one steal over 23 minutes during the 118-113 win over the Bucks.

Cavaliers' Lonzo Ball: Looks sharp off bench
Ball chipped in 11 points (4-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-3 FT), six rebounds, five assists and one steal over 23 minutes during Sunday's 118-113 win over the Bucks.
For the third game in a row, Ball saw a workload of 23 minutes, and that's a few minutes more than what coach Kenny Atkinson mentioned prior to Opening Night that he would like the guard to play. Sunday's game featured Ball's best performance by far to date, but he's shooting 27.8 percent from the field through three games, which suggests he's due for some positive regression with his jumper.

Cavaliers' Lonzo Ball: Hands out six assists in loss
Ball scored three points (1-7 FG, 1-7 3Pt) and added four rebounds and six assists over 23 minutes in Wednesday's 119-111 loss to the Knicks.
Ball came off the bench and led the team in assists, but his four turnovers were a little concerning. Despite Darius Garland (toe) out to start the regular season, it appears the Cavs rolled with Donovan Mitchell and Sam Merrill as the team's primary backcourt, with Ball serving as the main facilitator among the second unit.

Cavaliers' Lonzo Ball: Dishes out nine assists in win
Ball (rest) posted nine points (5-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), nine assists, four rebounds and three blocks across 20 minutes in Tuesday's 118-100 preseason win over Detroit.
Ball returned to action after sitting out Sunday's loss to the Celtics due to rest purposes. The 27-year-old guard led all players in assists and tied the game-high mark in blocks Tuesday. Ball is expected to be limited to 20 minutes per contest to begin the regular season and won't appear in both games of back-to-back sets.

Cavaliers' Lonzo Ball: Does not play Sunday
Ball (rest) did not suit up for Sunday's 138-107 preseason loss to the Celtics.
Kenny Atkinson decided to give some of his veterans Sunday off for rest purposes. Ball's final chance to suit up during the preseason will come Tuesday against the Pistons.

Cavaliers' Lonzo Ball: Quiet in 12 minutes
Ball finished scoreless (0-4 FG, 0-3 3Pt) with one assist in 12 minutes in Tuesday's 118-117 preseason loss to the Bulls.
Ball came off the bench Tuesday with Donovan Mitchell running the point. Ball has said that he's going to be limited to around 20 minutes per night to open the season and that he won't play in both games of back-to-back sets, so his fantasy upside will be held in check even in the absence of Darius Garland (toe).

Cavaliers' Lonzo Ball: Coming off bench Tuesday
Ball will come off the bench in Tuesday's preseason game against the Bulls, Spencer Davies of SI.com reports.
Despite Darius Garland (toe) and Sam Merrill (undisclosed) being sidelined, Ball will join the second unit in Cleveland's preseason opener against his former team. The 27-year-old point guard is expected to be limited to 20 minutes per contest to begin the regular season and won't appear in both games of back-to-back sets.

Cavaliers' Lonzo Ball: Expects to see around 20 minutes
Ball said Monday that he's expecting to see about 20 minutes per night to open the season, according to Cavaliers reporter Danny Cunningham.
Additionally, Ball said that playing in both games of back-to-back sets will be "off the table" to begin the season. This makes a lot of sense given Ball's injury history. Ball is expected to start on Opening Night in the absence of Darius Garland (toe), but expectations as far as fantasy impact goes should be tempered.
