Jaylon Tyson - Assigned to G League The Cavaliers assigned Tyson to the G League's Cleveland Charge on Saturday.
Isaac Okoro - Stays hot from deep in return Okoro (knee) accumulated 13 points (4-8 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 25 minutes during Friday's 115-105 win over the Wizards.
Impact Although it was sharpshooter Georges Niang who started the second half of Sunday's loss to the Heat after Evan Mobley (ankle) departed, Okoro who drew the starting nod and chipped in a full stat line in his return from a two-game absence with a knee injury. In 15 games as a starter this season, Okoro is averaging 6.9 points, 2.2 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 0.7 steals and 1.5 three-pointers in 22.1 minutes per contest. The 23-year-old three-and-D wing is shooting a career-high 48.3 percent from beyond the arc over 22 games overall this year, and he'll remain a decent source of triples and swipes for fantasy managers if Mobley remains unavailable for Monday's matchup with the Nets.

Donovan Mitchell - Bounces back with 20 points Mitchell contributed 20 points (7-18 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds, six assists and one steal across 34 minutes during Friday's 115-105 victory over Washington.
Impact It was a solid bounce-back outing for Mitchell, who had scored just 12 points and went 5-for-16 from the field in his last time out during Sunday's loss to Miami. Mitchell has dealt with a few hiccups in the scoring column here and there in 2024-25, but he's still averaging a strong 22.3 points, 5.4 rebounds, 4.9 assists, 1.5 steals and 3.7 three-pointers per game across his last 11 appearances. On the campaign as a whole, the 28-year-old fantasy stalwart is shooting a career-high 40.9 percent from downtown and averaging a career-low 2.2 turnovers per game.

Darius Garland - Team-high 24 points Friday Garland recorded 24 points (6-17 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 9-10 FT), five rebounds, eight assists and two steals across 33 minutes during Friday's 115-105 win over Washington.
Impact Garland led the Cavaliers with 24 points Friday while also handing out a game-high eight assists, also making up for an inefficient night from the floor by converting nine of his 10 free-throw attempts. The 25-year-old star guard has been rock-solid as Cleveland's floor general all year long, and he's averaging 20.8 points, 5.7 assists, 2.8 rebounds, 0.7 steals and 2.9 three-pointers per game through his last nine outings. Garland may not offer fantasy managers very much in the defensive categories, but he's shooting a career-high 41.6 percent from deep and averaging a career-low 2.3 turnovers per game on the season as a whole.

Jarrett Allen - Returns to form in win Allen produced 21 points (7-9 FG, 7-10 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 33 minutes during Friday's 115-105 victory over the Wizards.
Impact It was already Allen's 16th double-double of the year in just 26 appearances, and the star big man stepped up down low for the Cavaliers in the absence of frontcourt mate Evan Mobley (ankle) as he capitalized on a soft matchup against Washington on Friday. It was also Allen's first game with 20 points since a Nov. 24 win over Toronto, which is a much-needed jolt for fantasy managers, as Allen was averaging just 8.3 points, 8.3 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.2 blocks per contest over his prior six outings to Friday's action. Allen would figure to have additional rebounding and shot-blocking opportunities while Mobley remains sidelined, and he should be able to maintain a high field-goal percentage as opposing defenses focus on containing the dynamic backcourt duo of Donovan Mitchell and Darius Garland.
