Wade moves into the starting lineup with Isaac Okoro sidelined with a sprained AC joint in his shoulder. However, his fantasy value may not receive much of a boost, as Max Strus will make his season debut off the bench. The other four starters are unchanged.
Initially questionable for Monday's game, Porter has officially been ruled out. With Darius Garland and Ty Jerome available, Porter wouldn't have many rotation minutes available if he could play.
After sitting out Friday's win over the Wizards, Mobley is back in the lineup. His return means Dean Wade will come off the bench, eliminating most of his fantasy value. That's the lone change to the Cavaliers' starting five.
Porter has been inactive for Cleveland's last four games, with his absence not impacting fantasy basketball. As long as Donovan Mitchell and Darius Garland are healthy, Porter won't have many opportunities to produce.
Garland didn't have the best night shooting the basketball, but getting up ten free-throw attempts (making nine) boosted the point total. Also, the eight assists were the most in a game for him since Cleveland's December 1 win over the Celtics (eight). A 7th-round player over the past two weeks, Garland continues to provide 4th-round value for the season.
