Sam Merrill News, Rumors, Updates - Cleveland Cavaliers

Drops nine points Wednesday Merrill closed with nine points (3-6 FG, 3-5 3Pt), one rebound and one assist over 17 minutes during Wednesday's 129-96 loss to the Heat.

Impact Merrill scored nine points for the second time in the past three games, taking advantage of the face the Cavaliers have been dealing with multiple injuries. As soon as the team is even moderately healthy, Merrill could very well find himself out of the rotation again. Simply put, there is nothing to see here from a fantasy perspective.

Won't play Wednesday Merrill is listed as out for Wednesday's game versus the Thunder due to an illness.

Impact Merrill has averaged just 7.0 minutes across three appearances this season, so his absence shouldn't affect Cleveland's rotation. His next chance to suit up is Saturday's matchup with the Warriors.

Cavaliers sign guard Sam Merrill to multiyear contract

Inks multi-year deal with Cleveland The Cavaliers are expected to sign Merrill to a multi-year contract Tuesday, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Impact Merrill's 10-day contract expired Monday, and he made just one four-minute appearance across five games during his initial stint with the team. Despite his limited playing time, Merrill still earned a sizable promotion, and while the parameters of the deal haven't been disclosed, Evan Dammarell of FearTheSword.com expects the Utah State product's contract to be similar to the three-year deals Lamar Stevens and Dean Wade received from Cleveland over the last two years.

Joining Cleveland The Cavaliers are planning to sign Merrill to a 10-day contract Wednesday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

Impact Merrill was the first overall pick in the 2022 G League Draft and has spent the 2022-23 season with the Cleveland Charge. He will likely compete for a depth spot on the NBA club's roster but is unlikely to factor in significantly to their rotation.

Impact Merrill saw 26 preseason minutes, totaling 12 points, four rebounds and one assist. The sharpshooter may have to spend time in the G League to prove himself before he's ready for a consistent NBA role.
