Cavaliers' Craig Porter: Won't play Sunday
Porter has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Clippers due to a left hamstring strain.
With both Porter and Lonzo Ball (knee) unavailable for Sunday's game, the Cavaliers won't have much depth behind Darius Garland and Donovan Mitchell. Expect more minutes for Tyrese Proctor and Jaylon Tyson.

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' Jarrett Allen: Won't play Sunday
Allen (finger) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Clippers.
Allen is set to miss his second straight game, which should create more opportunity for Nae'Qwan Tomlin, Jaylon Tyson and Larry Nance. Allen's next chance to play will come Monday in Toronto.

Cavaliers' Sam Merrill: Remaining out vs. LAC
Merrill (hand) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Clippers.
Merrill will miss his third consecutive contest due to a sprained right hand, and his next opportunity to play will come Monday against the Raptors. With the sharpshooter remaining sidelined, Jaylon Tyson and Tyrese Proctor are candidates for an uptick in minutes.

Cavaliers' Jaylon Tyson: Excels in return from concussion
Tyson (concussion) tallied 14 points (6-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt), eight rebounds and three assists across 27 minutes Friday in the Cavaliers' 120-109 win over the Pacers.
After making a recovery from a concussion that had kept him out of each of Cleveland's past five games, Tyson cracked the starting five for the eighth time in 12 appearances on the season and came through with an efficient, all-around line to satisfy those who activated him or streamed him into fantasy lineups. Tyson is the most likely candidate to move to the bench if center Jarrett Allen (finger) is able to play Sunday against the Clippers after sitting out Friday, but the second-year wing should still be in line for a meaningful role on the second unit when Cleveland is at full strength. After seeing scarce playing time as a rookie, Tyson has shown excellent growth in Year 2 with averages of 11.3 points (on 51.5 percent shooting from the field), 4.3 rebounds, 2.2 three-pointers, 1.9 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.8 blocks in 25.9 minutes per contest.

Cavaliers' De'Andre Hunter: Scores 20 points in win
Hunter closed with 20 points (8-16 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and two steals in 28 minutes during Friday's 120-109 victory over the Pacers.
Hunter has scored at least 20 points in two straight games for the second time this season, and his longest streak in that regard is a three-game stretch between Nov. 8 and Nov. 12. The veteran wing has done a good job adjusting to a starting role with the Cavaliers after being a key reserve in 2024-25. Hunter is averaging 18.1 points, 4.7 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game since the beginning of November.

Cavaliers' Evan Mobley: Double-doubles in win
Mobley produced 22 points (7-13 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 7-11 FT), 12 rebounds, four assists and four blocks across 35 minutes during Friday's 120-109 win over the Pacers.
Mobley reached the 20-point mark for the fifth time in 10 November appearances. He's doing more than just scoring, as the big man also tied his season-high mark in blocks with four. Mobley continues to establish himself as a productive presence for the Cavaliers with averages of 18.3 points, 8.7 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 1.5 blocks per night over his past 10 games.

Cavaliers' Darius Garland: Scores 20, hands out seven dimes
Garland (toe) amassed 20 points (5-12 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 7-7 FT), seven assists and two rebounds across 27 minutes during Friday's 120-109 victory over the Pacers.
Making his return from a five-game absence due to a left big toe injury, Garland excelled in a complementary role in the backcourt alongside Donovan Mitchell, who paced Cleveland with 32 points. The 25-year-old point guard has been limited to just four games this season due to that injury, but he's averaging 16.0 points and 6.7 assists per game this season in games where he's logged at least 20 minutes. Expect him to regularly clear 30 minutes in competitive games once he's fully reconditioned.

Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Nets 32 points with five dimes
Mitchell finished Friday's 120-109 win over the Pacers with 32 points (11-22 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 6-8 FT), nine rebounds, five assists and one steal in 34 minutes.
This was Mitchell's eighth, 30-plus point performance of the season, and the fourth time over the past five games that he's scored at least 30 points. He's flirting with first-round value on the season behind averages of 30.3 points, 5.3 assists, 4.8 rebounds, 3.9 triples and 1.5 steals per contest.

Cavaliers' Jaylon Tyson: Starting in return
Tyson (concussion) is in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Pacers, Spencer Davies of SI.comreports.
Cleveland is deploying a smaller starting lineup in the absence of Jarrett Allen (finger). Friday is set to be the eighth start of the year for Tyson, who has averaged 13.6 points, 4.1 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.1 blocks in 26.7 minutes per contest through seven games as a starter this season. Tyson is returning from a five-game absence after passing the concussion protocol.

Cavaliers' Nae'Qwan Tomlin: Headed to bench
Tomlin will return to the bench for Friday's game against the Pacers, Spencer Davies of SI.com reports.
Jaylon Tyson is back and starting, so Tomlin will shift to the second unit, and his minutes will dip. As a reserve this season, Tomlin owns averages of 6.2 points and 3.3 rebounds per game.

Cavaliers' Jarrett Allen: Ruled out for Friday
Allen (finger) will not play Friday against the Pacers, Spencer Davies of SI.com reports.
Cavaliers head coach Kenny Atkinson said it looked as though Allen would play during his pregame media availability Friday afternoon, so it's surprising to see Allen get ruled out. His absence will open up minutes for Thomas Bryant and Larry Nance. For now, Allen should be considered questionable for Sunday's game versus the Clippers.

Cavaliers' Jaylon Tyson: Upgraded to available
Tyson (concussion) is available for Friday's game against the Pacers, Tony East of Forbes.com reports.
Tyson was expected to be upgraded to available based on Kenny Atkinson's words earlier Friday, and the wing will make his first appearance since Nov. 12. He's going to have a minutes restriction and is likely to be held to under 30 minutes, a scenario that limits his fantasy upside.

Cavaliers' Darius Garland: Will play Friday
Garland (toe) is available for Friday's game against Indiana, Tony East of Forbes.com reports.
The Cavaliers held Garland out for five straight games to manage his left toe injury, but the star guard is back in action Friday. The team will manage his workload to fewer than 30 minutes, Spencer Davies of SI.com reports. Garland has averaged 13.0 points, 5.0 assists, 3.0 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 24.3 minutes per contest over three appearances this season.

Cavaliers' Darius Garland: Tracking toward playing
Garland (toe) is expected to be available for Friday's game against the Pacers, Spencer Davies of SI.com reports.
The Cavaliers have kept Garland out for five consecutive games to manage his left toe injury, but the star guard appears to be ready to roll Friday. The team will manage his workload to under 30 minutes if he's available, per Davies. Garland has averaged 13.0 points, 5.0 assists, 3.0 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 24.3 minutes per contest over three games this season.

Cavaliers' Jarrett Allen: Expected to play Friday
Allen (finger) is expected to play Friday against the Pacers, Spencer Davies of SI.com reports.
Allen remains questionable on the latest edition of the injury report, but the star big man is trending toward being available. Allen is averaging 15.2 points, 7.9 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.1 blocks per game since the beginning of November.

Cavaliers' Jaylon Tyson: Expected to suit up Friday
Tyson (concussion) is expected to play Friday against the Pacers, Spencer Davies of SI.com reports.
If available, Tyson's minutes will be monitored in his first game back from a five-game absence Friday night, so he's not a great target in daily fantasy leagues. Tyson's return might result in fewer minutes for Nae'Qwan Tomlin.

Cavaliers' Sam Merrill: Ruled out vs. Pacers
Merrill (hand) is out for Friday's game against the Pacers.
A sprained right hand is costing Merrill a second straight contest. Sunday's showdown with the Clippers marks the sharpshooter's next chance to suit up. Jaylon Tyson (head) could draw the start if he clears concussion protocol, while Craig Porter should be able to play meaningful minutes off the bench.
