Out as expected Stevens (illness) is out Friday at Milwaukee.

Impact With Stevens, Kevin Love (thumb) and Caris LeVert (ankle) out, more minutes should be in store for Dean Wade, Cedi Osman and Isaac Okoro. Stevens' next chance to play is Sunday against the Pistons.

NOVEMBER 25, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Unlikely to play Friday Stevens is considered doubtful for Friday's game against the Bucks due to a non-COVID illness.

Impact Stevens has started the last six games for the Cavs after operating in a limited role to begin the season, averaging 9.8 points and 3.7 rebounds in 28.7 minutes per contest during the recent stretch. However, it appears the third-year forward is expected to miss Friday's matchup in Milwaukee, so Dean Wade and Cedi Osman should see increased playing time if he's ultimately ruled out.

Efficient shooting from field Stevens closed Sunday's 113-87 win over the Heat with 11 points (5-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt), four rebounds, one assist and one steal over 22 minutes.

Impact Stevens scored in double figures for the third time in his last four contests, though he did so much more efficiently Sunday night. He also collected his first steal of the 2022-23 campaign. Stevens has started four straight matchups and looks to remain in this role until further notice.

Starts in return Stevens amassed 15 points (5-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds and one assist in 30 minutes during Sunday's 129-124 loss to the Timberwolves.

Impact In his first start of the season, Stevens provided solid production. The 25-year-old had played just 23 minutes across three contests all season before Sunday's 30-minute outing. With Donovan Mitchell (ankle) and Dean Wade (knee) out, Stevens was called upon to step up, and he delivered. It's unlikely that he'll land a regular spot in the starting lineup unless those injuries persist.

Draws start Sunday Stevens is starting Sunday against Minnesota, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Impact Stevens has appeared in just three games for the Cavaliers this season, but he'll make his first start of the year with the team shorthanded Sunday. Isaac Okoro and Cedi Osman should also see increased run with Donovan Mitchell (ankle) and Dean Wade (knee) unavailable.

Sees rare increase in workload Stevens closed with six points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and one block over 19 minutes during Friday's 112-88 victory over the Pistons.

Impact Stevens had failed to appear in each of his team's last five matchups entering the night, but he ended up logging a season-high 19 minutes while also tallying his first points and first block of the campaign. Stevens is currently buried on the depth chart behind Evan Mobley, Kevin Love, Cedi Osman and Dean Wade, so his opportunities figure to be few and far between moving forward barring any significant injuries.

Scores 12 points off bench Stevens posted 12 points (2-3 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 6-6 FT) and one rebound across 18 minutes off the bench in Friday's 114-108 preseason loss against the Magic.

Impact Stevens scored half of his total scoring output from the charity stripe, but that doesn't hide the fact that he was quite efficient in the preseason finale. That said, he is not expected to hold a regular role in the rotation and is not likely to be a significant factor across fantasy formats.
