Isaac Okoro

Garland and LeVert will join Sam Merrill, Isaac Okoro and Dean Wade on the Cavaliers' injury report for the second leg of a back-to-back set. Cleveland is a heavy favorite, and the team is likely giving Garland and Co. some extra time off. Garland's injury shouldn't be considered serious. Craig Porter Jr. and Ty Jerome are expected to see increased run in Garland's absence.

Merrill moves into the starting lineup with Isaac Okoro (ankle) out on Tuesday. With Caris LeVert (knee) also set to miss the game against the Celtics, Merrill figures to play a lot tonight. He's firmly on the streaming radar tonight and should some 3-point production for fantasy managers in deeper formats.

Cleveland's depth will be tested on Tuesday. Already down Max Strus, the Cavaliers will be missing Isaac Okoro and LeVert on Tuesday against Boston. Sam Merrill is a decent streaming option with plenty of bench minutes up for grabs in the big game against the Celtics.

Merrill is back in the lineup after a three-game absence, and the timing could not be better due to Cleveland's injuries on the wing. With Caris LeVert (knee) and Isaac Okoro (ankle) sidelined, Merrill should play more minutes. He'll have value in deep leagues among managers needing 3-point production.

Okoro will sit after injuring his ankle during Sunday's win over Charlotte. With Caris LeVert and Dean Wade also sidelined, the Cavaliers will be short multiple bodies on the perimeter. Those absences may push rookie Jaylon Tyson into the back end of the rotation, but he's unlikely to get the minutes needed to impact fantasy basketball.
