Blazers vs. Cavaliers: Live updates, time, TV channel, free live stream online The Blazers return home to host the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Shaedon Sharpe - Good to go Sharpe (knee) is good to go for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers, according to Sean Highkin of RoseGardenReport.com.
Impact Sharpe was carrying a probable tag due to some minor soreness, likely a result of the heavy workloads he's been seeing with Portland.

Duop Reath - Claims rotation spot Reath was held scoreless (0-4 FG, 0-3 3Pt) and contributed one rebound in Tuesday's 115-99 loss to the Jazz.
Impact Reath, one of Portland's three two-way players, has been included in the rotation as the backup center to Deandre Ayton in the last two games, after having not appeared in any of the team's first eight contests of the season. The 27-year-old drilled three triples en route to an 11-point performance in 14 minutes against the Lakers on Tuesday, but he took a big step backward Tuesday. With Robert Williams (knee) out for the season, Reath has a chance to capture a permanent spot on the second unit, but the Trail Blazers likely won't hesitate to move on if he fails to produce in his subsequent opportunities.

Shaedon Sharpe - Expected to play Wednesday Sharpe is probable for Wednesday's game versus the Cavaliers due to left knee soreness.
Impact Sharpe has yet to miss a game this season and isn't expected to do so Wednesday despite dealing with a minor knee injury. Due to injuries to Scoot Henderson (ankle), Malcolm Brogdon (hamstring) and Anfernee Simons (thumb), Sharpe is currently leading the NBA with 39.6 minutes played per game.

Malcolm Brogdon - Remains out Wednesday Brogdon (hamstring) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers.
Impact Brogdon will miss a third straight game Wednesday due to a left hamstring strain. With Scoot Henderson (ankle) and Anfernee Simons (thumb) also inactive, the Trail Blazers' backcourt will be shorthanded again. Skylar Mays has excelled in an increased role recently, averaging 13.0 points and 11.0 assists per game in Brodgon's absence.

Keyonte George - Scores in double figures George finished with 15 points (4-9 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds, seven assists and one steal in 26 minutes during Tuesday's 115-99 victory over the Trail Blazers.
Impact George started a third consecutive game Tuesday and posted a double-digit scoring total for the second time this year. The 20-year-old has been consistent as a passer since joining the starting lineup, and he's averaging 9.7 points, 9.0 assists and 3.0 rebounds in 29.0 minutes per game as a starter.

Kelly Olynyk - Double-doubles off bench Olynyk provided 12 points (4-8 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 12 rebounds, three assists and one steal across 24 minutes during Tuesday's 115-99 victory over the Trail Blazers.
Impact Olynyk grabbed a season-high 12 rebounds and scored in double figures for just the fourth time this year en route to his first double-double of 2023-24. Walker Kessler (elbow) has missed the last three games, but Olynyk's role hasn't changed much, averaging 7.3 points, 8.3 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.0 steals in 22.0 minutes during that stretch. Before Walker's absence, Olynyk averaged 7.9 points, 5.1 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 1.1 steals in 20.5 minutes across eight games.
