Won't debut Friday Niang (trade pending) is out for Friday's game versus the Bucks.
Impact Niang has been downgraded from questionable to out Friday as the trade that is sending him from Cleveland to Atlanta is still being finalized. However, GM Lary Fields hopes to have Niang on the road trip that begins Saturday against Washington, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
FEBRUARY 7, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Questionable due to pending trade Niang (recently traded) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Bucks.
Impact Niang will look to make his Hawks debut on Friday, though his next chance to feature will come Saturday against Washington if one day proves to be too quick of a turnaround. The forward played fairly significant minutes for Cleveland before the trade, and over his last 10 outings, he averaged 9.6 points and 3.7 rebounds across 22.6 minutes per contest.

De'Andre Hunter traded by Atlanta to Cleveland for package of players and picks

Eastern Conference-leading Cleveland acquired forward De’Andre Hunter from the Atlanta Hawks early Friday for two players and a package of draft compensation
FEBRUARY 6, 2025 • Associated Press
Shipped to Atlanta The Cavaliers traded Niang and Caris LeVert along with draft picks to the Hawks on Thursday in exchange for De'Andre Hunter, ESPN's Shams Charania reports.
Impact Niang was in the midst of a solid season for the Cavaliers, producing averages of 8.7 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.3 assists while shooting 40.0 percent from beyond the arc. He could have a similar role in Atlanta, as the franchise will not have Jalen Johnson (shoulder) for the remainder of the season. The Hawks may not be done making moves, as well.

Notches 13 points Niang notched 13 points (5-7 FG, 3-5 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one block over 22 minutes during Sunday's 144-101 win over the Mavericks.
Impact Niang has reached double figures in four of his last five outings for Cleveland as he continues to provide a lift off the bench. During that stretch, Niang has produced averages of 12.4 points, 3.2 rebounds and 3.0 three-pointers in 23.3 minutes per game.

Donovan Mitchell scores 34 points, Cavaliers never trail in 126-106 win over Heat

Donovan Mitchell scored 34 points, Ty Jerome added 20 off the bench and the Cleveland Cavaliers never trailed in a 126-106 win over the Miami Heat
JANUARY 30, 2025 • Associated Press
Strong night off bench Saturday Niang ended with 21 points (7-9 FG, 6-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one steal across 29 minutes during Saturday's 135-131 loss to the Rockets.
Impact Niang hasn't been much of a scoring contributor this year, but each of his season-high 21 points were needed in a close loss to Houston. He led the Cavaliers with six three-pointers, which is the second time he's reached that mark this season. Niang and the Cavs will look to break out of their three-game losing streak Monday against the Pistons.

Steps up with season-high 10 boards Niang notched 15 points (5-7 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist and one steal across 29 minutes during Saturday's 124-117 win over the Timberwolves.
Impact With Evan Mobley sidelined with a calf injury Saturday, Niang stepped up off Cleveland's bench with his highest scoring output since Jan. 3 against Dallas to go with his first double-double of the season. Although it was sixth man Caris LeVert who drew the start for the Cavaliers in Mobley's stead, Niang may have left enough of an impression to be considered for a start if Mobley sits out Monday's game against the Suns as well. In any case, Niang should offer streaming value in fantasy leagues until Mobley is healthy.

JANUARY 6, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Just misses double-double Monday Niang closed Monday's 130-101 victory over the Nets with 17 points (7-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), nine rebounds and two assists across 25 minutes off the bench.
Impact The veteran forward nearly produced his first double-double since April 13, 2021, when he was a member of the Jazz. Niang has been one of the pillars of Cleveland's second unit this season, scoring in double digits in eight of the last 13 games while averaging 10.3 points, 4.7 boards, 1.9 threes and 1.5 assists in 22.9 minutes a contest.

Evan Mobley scores 21 to lead the Cavaliers over the Nets 130-101

Evan Mobley scored 21 points, Caris LeVert added 19 and the Cleveland Cavaliers rolled to a 130-101 win over the Brooklyn Nets on Monday night
DECEMBER 17, 2024 • Associated Press
Steps up with 15 points off bench Niang supplied 15 points (5-7 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one steal over 31 minutes during Sunday's 122-113 loss to the Heat.
Impact With the Cavaliers losing starting power forward Evan Mobley in the first half to a sprained ankle, Niang started the second half and stepped up off the bench for an efficient 15 points. In his past five outings, the sharpshooting Niang is averaging 10.0 points, 4.8 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.8 three-pointers in 22.8 minutes per game while shooting a strong 56.4 percent from long range. While Mobley will have five days to recover before Cleveland's next scheduled game Friday against the Wizards, Niang would be a candidate to join the starting lineup at the four and receive an uptick in minutes if Mobley is unable to play by then.
