Cavaliers' Max Strus: Remains out indefinitely
Strus (foot) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Bulls.
Strus underwent left foot surgery in August and remains without a timetable for a return. The 29-year-old forward should be considered week-to-week until the Cavaliers provide an update on his recovery.

Cavaliers' Sam Merrill: Still out with hand sprain
Merrill is listed as out for Wednesday's game against the Bulls due to a right hand sprain.
The Cavaliers haven't offered any details about a timeline for a return for Merrill, who hasn't been available since the Nov. 17 win over the Bucks. Until that happens, the sharpshooter can be considered week-to-week. Merrill's absence has played a big part in the emergence of Jaylon Tyson, who has averaged 15.2 points, 7.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 2.0 three-pointers in 30.6 minutes per contest over his last 11 games.

Cavaliers' Thomas Bryant: Scores in double figures
Bryant accumulated 10 points (3-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds, one assist and one block over 14 minutes during Sunday's 119-111 overtime loss to Charlotte.
Despite the return of Jarrett Allen, Bryant scored in double figures off the bench for only the second time this season. While Allen is back after a multi-game absence, the Cavaliers are expected to be without Evan Mobley (calf) for at least a few weeks, leaving the door open for Bryant to remain part of the rotation. Larry Nance (calf) also remains out indefinitely.

Cavaliers' Nae'Qwan Tomlin: Notches seven points
Tomlin had seven points (3-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt) and three rebounds across 14 minutes during Sunday's 119-111 overtime loss to the Hornets.
With Evan Mobley (calf) set to miss multiple weeks, Tomlin is a candidate to see increased run during the short term. He has 18 appearances to his name this season, posting averages of 6.8 points, 3.4 rebounds, 0.8 steals and 0.7 blocks in 16.5 minutes per contest.

Cavaliers' Jarrett Allen: Underwhelms in return
Allen (finger) recorded nine points (3-8 FG, 3-5 FT), three rebounds and one assist across 23 minutes Sunday in the Cavaliers' 119-111 overtime loss to the Hornets.
Though Allen was back in action following a six-game absence due to a right middle finger strain, the Cavaliers appeared to deliberately keep his minutes in check Sunday as he works to regain conditioning. For the season, Allen is shooting a career-low 56.3 percent from the field and is averaging 14.0 points, 7.3 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.8 blocks in 25.9 minutes per game, but he could see a boost in his production once he's fully ramped back up. Evan Mobley (calf) is expected to miss multiple weeks, which could clear the way for Allen to take on more playing time and usage in the frontcourt.

Cavaliers' Jaylon Tyson: Double-double from second unit
Tyson closed Sunday's 119-111 overtime loss to the Hornets with 16 points (6-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 13 rebounds, one assist and one steal across 35 minutes off the bench.
The second-year forward moved back to the second unit for the first time since Nov. 28, but Tyson still saw a starter's workload and delivered his third double-double of the season, all three of which have come in December. Through six games this month, the 20th overall pick in the 2024 Draft is averaging 17.5 points, 9.0 boards, 2.5 assists and 1.8 threes, and Tyson's role isn't going to shrink as long as Evan Mobley (calf) remains sidelined.

Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Can't find rhythm in OT loss
Mitchell posted 17 points (6-24 FG, 1-11 3Pt, 4-5 FT), two rebounds, seven assists, one block and two steals over 38 minutes during Sunday's 119-111 overtime loss to the Hornets.
It was Mitchell's worst shooting performance of the season, as he failed to score at least 28 points for the first time in December. The All-Star guard has still drained at least one three-pointer in every game he's played this season, and through the first six contests this month he's averaging 33.0 points, 5.5 assists, 4.3 boards, 4.0 threes and 1.3 steals.

Cavaliers' Darius Garland: Strikes for team-high 26 in OT loss
Garland amassed 26 points (8-19 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 7-8 FT), two rebounds, nine assists, one block and one steal over 39 minutes during Sunday's 119-111 overtime loss to the Hornets.
The 26 points led the Cavaliers on the afternoon, as Garland reached 20 points for only the third time in his last eight games while continuing to sit out the second half of back-to-backs. Over that span, which stretches back to Nov. 21, Garland has averaged 16.4 points, 7.0 assists, 2.9 boards, 1.6 threes and 0.8 steals.

Cavaliers' Jaylon Tyson: Headed to bench
Tyson will come off the bench Sunday against the Hornets, Serena Winters of FanDuel Sports Network Ohio reports.
Dean Wade is replacing Tyson in the first unit for Sunday's game, which lessens Tyson's appeal as a target in daily fantasy leagues. As a member of the second unit this season, Tyson owns averages of 7.2 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.2 triples and 1.4 steals per game in 23.7 minutes per contest.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Starting Sunday
Wade is part of the starting lineup for Sunday's game against Charlotte, Serena Winters of FanDuel Sports Network Ohio reports.
Wade will make his fourth start of the campaign, replacing Jaylon Tyson in the first unit while Evan Mobley (calf) is sidelined. In his three starts this season, Wade has averaged 7.3 points, 3.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.0 steals across 27.3 minutes.

Cavaliers' Jarrett Allen: Cleared to play Sunday
Allen (finger) is available for Sunday's game against the Hornets, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Allen has been sidelined for nine of the Cavs' last 10 games due to a right finger sprain, but he has been cleared to play Sunday. He'll reclaim his starting spot at center, and with Evan Mobley (calf) sidelined for at least two weeks, Dean Wade could join Allen in the starting lineup in the short term.

Cavaliers' Sam Merrill: Ruled out for Sunday
Merrill (hand) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Hornets.
Merrill will miss his 12th consecutive contest due to a sprained right hand. The Cavaliers haven't indicated how close Merrill is to playing again, but with two full days off coming after Sunday's contest, the shooting guard may have a chance at returning to action Wednesday in Chicago.

Cavaliers' Max Strus: Won't suit up Sunday
Strus (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Hornets.
Strus is still recovering from left foot surgery he underwent in August and is without a timetable for a return. The 29-year-old can be considered doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Bulls until the Cavaliers provide an update on his status.

Cavaliers' Jarrett Allen: Likely to play Sunday
Allen (finger) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Hornets.
Allen has missed nine of the Cavaliers' last 10 games due to a strained right finger, but he has progressed enough in his recovery to earn the probable tag for Sunday's game. His return would be timely, given that Evan Mobley will be sidelined for 2-to-4 weeks due to a Grade 1 calf strain. Allen has appeared in 15 regular-season games and is averaging 14.3 points, 7.6 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.9 blocks over 26.1 minutes per game.

Cavaliers' Evan Mobley: Sidelined for at least two weeks
Mobley sustained a Grade 1 left calf strain during the Cavaliers' 130-126 win over the Wizards on Friday.
The good news for Mobley is that the strain isn't severe enough to warrant a long absence, but the All-Star forward is expected to miss 2-to-4 weeks while rehabbing from his calf injury. Dean Wade, Thomas Bryant and Nae'Qwan Tomlin are all slated to see more minutes for as long as Mobley is sidelined.

Cavaliers' De'Andre Hunter: Struggles with shot Friday
Hunter registered 15 points (4-14 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 4-4 FT) and four rebounds in 27 minutes during Friday's 130-126 victory over the Wizards.
Hunter reached the 15-point mark for the first time in December, but he continues to struggle with his shot. The veteran forward plays a secondary role in the Cavaliers' offensive scheme, but his ability to knock down outside shots certainly opens up possibilities for others. Over five games in December, Hunter is averaging 11.0 points per game while shooting 35.3 percent from the floor and a mere 22.2 percent from three-point range.
