Dean Wade - Ruled out for Sunday Wade won't play against the Pacers on Sunday due to rest purposes.

Impact Wade isn't expected to play a significant role in the rotation during the playoffs, but he's still going to get some rest in the regular-season finale Sunday. The former Kansas State standout averaged 5.4 points, 4.2 rebounds and 1.3 assists across 21.2 minutes per game in 59 appearances (30 starts) in the regular season.

Max Strus - Won't play Sunday Strus is out for Sunday's game against the Pacers due to right knee injury management.

Impact Strus is one of several regulars who will miss Sunday's regular-season finale for the Cavaliers, who have already locked up the first seed in the Eastern Conference. Strus, a sharpshooter who stretches the floor for the Cavs on offense, should be good to go for the start of the playoffs on April 19. He finishes the 2024-25 season with averages of 9.4 points, 4.3 rebounds and 3.2 assists per game while shooting 38.6 percent from deep in his 50 appearances (37 starts).

Isaac Okoro - Resting in season finale Okoro (rest) is out for Sunday's game against the Pacers.

Impact Okoro started in 22 of his 55 regular-season appearances in 2024-25, and he finished the campaign with averages of 6.1 points, 2.4 rebounds and 1.2 assists across 19.1 minutes per game. He won't be available for this matchup Sunday, meaning the Cavs will rely mostly on fringe and unproven players, but he should be good to go when the playoffs start on April 19.

Evan Mobley - Won't play Sunday Mobley won't play Sunday against the Pacers due to low back soreness.

Impact Mobley recorded a 16-point, 10-rebound double-double against the Knicks on Friday, and the star forward, who earned an All-Star nod for the first time in his career this season, won't be available for the season finale. That way, he'll end his breakout year with averages of 18.5 points, 9.3 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 1.6 blocks and 0.9 steals per game across 71 contests. Mobley will have almost an entire week to rest before the start of the 2025 NBA Playoffs on April 19.

Donovan Mitchell - Sitting out regular-season finale Mitchell (ankle) is out for Sunday's game against the Pacers.

Impact Mitchell will miss a fourth straight game due to an ankle sprain he sustained in the 120-113 win over the Kings on Sunday, April 6. The Cavaliers are being extremely cautious with the health of their star guard, so Mitchell will have extra days to recover. The goal is to have the superstar guard ready for the start of the playoffs on April 19. Mitchell ends the 2024-25 campaign with averages of 24.0 points, 4.5 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 1.3 steals per game across 71 starts.

Sam Merrill - Resting in season finale Merrill (rest) is out for Sunday's game against the Pacers.

Impact Merrill received a maintenance day Friday, and he won't suit up Sunday, either. The sharpshooter doesn't have a regular starting role for the Cavaliers, but he should provide offense and three-point shooting off the bench ahead of the playoffs. Merrill ends the 2024-25 season with averages of 7.2 points, 2.2 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game across 71 regular-season contests, a span in which he also made 37.2 percent of his attempts from three-point range.
