Top Cavaliers News

  • Cavaliers' Zeke Mayo: Signs with Cleveland

    Mayo signed an Exhibit 10 contract with the Cavaliers on Friday, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.

    Mayo is expected to be waived shortly, setting him up to join the Cleveland Charge in the G League.

  • Cavaliers' Norchad Omier: Cut loose by Cleveland

    The Cavaliers waived Omier on Wednesday.

    Cleveland took a look at Omier during training camp, but he failed to keep his spot on the team. The forward will likely join the G League's Cleveland Charge for the upcoming season.

  • Cavaliers' Darius Garland: Goes through scrimmage Tuesday

    Garland (toe) participated in a scrimmage with contact Tuesday, Chris Fedor of Cleveland.com reports.

    Garland is still on the mend after undergoing toe surgery in June. Although the Cavaliers have been encouraged by Garland's recent progress, head coach Kenny Atkinson cautioned that his return is not imminent. "It's not linear, usually, the return to performance, and we're hoping it will be and he'll progress," Atkinson said. "But I side on the side of being conservative and making sure. This is a good step today. A small step but a good step." The Cavaliers are likely to provide another update on Garland's timetable in the near future, but for now, fantasy managers can assume that he will miss a handful of games to open the regular season.

  • Cavaliers' Thomas Bryant: Fails to score Tuesday

    Bryant scored zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) in three minutes during Tuesday's preseason win over Detroit.

    Bryant signed a one-year deal with the Cavaliers during the offseason, providing the team with some depth at the center position. However, the addition of Larry Nance as another center option could see Bryant spending the majority of his time on the bench. Expect to see him play limited, if any, minutes most games.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Cavaliers' Sam Merrill: Drops 10 points in win

    Merrill closed with 10 points (4-7 FG, 2-5 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and one steal in 20 minutes during Tuesday's preseason win over the Pistons.

    Merrill made his preseason debut, sliding straight into the starting lineup. With both Darius Garland (toe) and Max Strus (foot) sidelined to begin the season, Merrill will likely be tasked with more responsibility on the offensive end of the floor. Look for him to play a meaningful role off the bench, at least until Garland and Strus are cleared to return.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Cavaliers' Evan Mobley: Tallies five defensive stats

    Mobley finished with eight points (3-13 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, five assists, three blocks and two steals in 33 minutes during Tuesday's preseason win over the Pistons.

    Despite the modest offensive production, there were a lot of positives when it came to Mobley's performance, the first of which was the fact that he played 33 minutes in what was a meaningless game. The defensive contributions are always going to be there, while his assist numbers are certainly an interesting wrinkle. Coming of what could be considered a breakout season, Mobley is someone fantasy managers will have to target in the second round of just about every draft.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • 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.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Cavaliers' Jarrett Allen: Scores 15 points with two blocks

    Allen recorded 15 points (5-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds, two assists, one steal, two blocks and one turnover in 28 minutes during Tuesday's preseason win over the Pistons.

    Allen isn't the most exciting player, but he can be a steady source of rebounds and defensive stats while boosting your team's field goal percentage. He's a solid, mid-round target for draft day.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Nets 17 points with three steals

    Mitchell posted 17 points (6-11 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), two rebounds, three assists, three triples, three steals and five turnovers in 29 minutes during Tuesday's preseason win over the Pistons.

    Mitchell has looked great throughout the preseason, and he should hit the ground running in Cleveland, as he'll be shouldering a heavy load on offense with Darius Garland (toe) out. He's a solid, early-round target for draft day.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Cavaliers' De'Andre Hunter: Won't return Tuesday

    Hunter won't return to Tuesday's preseason game against the Pistons due to a right knee contusion, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Hunter sustained the injury in the second quarter and didn't return for the second half. He'll finish with 14 points (3-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 6-7 FT), two assists, one rebound and one steal across 14 minutes. The 27-year-old forward is being held out as a precautionary measure, according to Fedor. Still, his status will be worth monitoring ahead of the team's regular-season opener against the Knicks on Oct. 22.

  • Cavaliers' Larry Nance: Back to bench in preseason finale

    Nance is coming off the bench in Tuesday's preseason finale against Detroit.

    Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley will take over their usual duties in the frontcourt for Tuesday's final tune-up. Nance is set to open the new season as Allen's top backup at center, and the former's streaming appeal will likely be limited in that role.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Coming off bench Tuesday

    Wade won't start in Tuesday's preseason game against the Pistons.

    With Evan Mobley (rest) returning to action, Wade will come off the bench in Cleveland's preseason finale. The 28-year-old forward is expected to provide frontcourt depth this season. He averaged 5.4 points and 4.2 rebounds across a career-high 21.2 minutes per game in 59 regular-season appearances (30 starts) during the 2024-25 campaign.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Cavaliers' Craig Porter: With second unit Tuesday

    Porter will come off the bench in Tuesday's preseason finale against the Pistons.

    Donovan Mitchell (rest) will get his final tune-up Tuesday, pushing Porter to the second unit. Despite the absence of Darius Garland (toe), Porter could still find it difficult to get meaningful playing time in the early stages of the season.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Cavaliers' Jaylon Tyson: Retreats to bench

    Tyson will come off the bench during Tuesday's preseason game against the Pistons.

    Tyson will be in the second unit after starting in Sunday's preseason loss to the Celtics. He finished with 16 points, five rebounds and four assists in a strong performance as a starter.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Cavaliers' Tyrese Proctor: Won't start Tuesday

    Proctor won't start in Tuesday's preseason game against the Pistons.

    With Donovan Mitchell (rest) and Sam Merrill (undisclosed) returning to action, Proctor will retreat to the bench. The Duke product drew the start in Sunday's preseason loss to the Celtics, posting 12 points (5-14 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 0-1 FT), four assists, two rebounds and one steal in 28 minutes.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Cavaliers' Jarrett Allen: Will play vs. Detroit

    Allen (rest) will play and start in Tuesday's preseason game against the Pistons.

    Allen will return to the floor Tuesday after sitting out Sunday's preseason loss to the Celtics for rest purposes. This will be the first time the veteran center will play during this preseason.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Cavaliers' Evan Mobley: Returning to floor vs. Detroit

    Mobley (rest) is returning to the starting lineup for Tuesday's preseason finale against the Pistons.

    It will be Mobley's last chance to knock off any potential offseason rust before the regular season. The star big man should see most of his playing time come in the first half Tuesday, though he may work in the second half a bit as well.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Cavaliers' Sam Merrill: Good to go Tuesday

    Merrill is available and starting in Tuesday's preseason game against the Pistons.

    Merrill will suit up in Cleveland's preseason finale after missing the team's first three exhibition games. The sharpshooter is expected to take on an increased role to begin the regular season due to Darius Garland (toe) and Max Strus (foot) being sidelined.
