Wed Feb 1920:02Isaac Okoro May Return To Action Against Nets
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Isaac Okoro (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. The 24-year-old has sat out 14 games due to a right shoulder injury but could be back in action on Thursday night. Okoro also dealt with the same injury earlier in the campaign, which has limited him to 28 appearances in 2024-25. Fantasy managers have never received much production from Okoro, but he will be a welcome addition to the rotation as the season enters its final months.

Mon Jan 2712:08Isaac Okoro Ruled Out Against Pistons
Cleveland Cavaliers shooting guard Isaac Okoro (shoulder) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Okoro will miss his sixth straight game due to his shoulder injury which appears to be more serious than first thought. Since being drafted, Okoro has established himself as one of the better perimeter defenders in the NBA and has taken massive strides in improving his outside shot. He averages 5.8 points on 42.7% shooting from the field and 39.7% from three. His next chance to return to game action will come Wednesday against the Miami Heat. His absence would likely free up additional playing time for Sam Merrill and Georges Niang in the rotation.

Sat Jan 1820:38Isaac Okoro Ruled Out For Saturday's Game
Cleveland Cavaliers forward Isaac Okoro (shoulder) has been ruled out ahead of Saturday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Cavs are likely going to be shorthanded here with Evan Mobley (calf) unavailable as well. That means, Georges Niang, Dean Wade, and Max Strus should all see increased roles in the rotation. None of these players are great fantasy options, but Strus is probably the best streaming choice of the three. He probably offers the most upside as the shooter between the bunch.

Thu Dec 19 202416:34Isaac Okoro Out At Least Two Weeks
According to Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer, Cleveland Cavaliers forwardIsaac Okoro (shoulder) will be sidelined for at least two weeks due to a sprained AC joint in his right shoulder. Okoro posted 12 points, one rebound, one steal and one assist across 20 minutes on Monday versus the Nets before suffering the shoulder injury. While the 23-year-old is out, Dean Wade and Georges Niang will likely see an uptick in minutes on the floor.

Fri Dec 6 202420:38Isaac Okoro Listed As Questionable For Saturday
Cleveland Cavaliers forward Isaac Okoro (knee) has been listed as questionable for Saturday's matchup against Charlotte. The three-and-d wing hurt his left knee in Thursday's game against Denver and might have to sit out the meeting with the Hornets entirely. If that's the case, Caris LeVert, Georges Niang, and Dean Wade should share Okoro's minutes. LeVert is the best fantasy option of the three. He had his second-best offensive outing on Thursday with 21 points and six assists.

Thu Dec 5 202420:34Isaac Okoro Exits Game Early On Thursday, Won't Return
Cleveland Cavaliers forward Isaac Okoro exited Thursday night's game against the Denver Nuggets early with what the team is calling a left knee contusion. Okoro went 1-2 from three and finished with three points before exiting after playing just 12 minutes. Dean Wade started the second half ahead of Okoro and should be expected to get more playing time if Okoro is sidelined for any length of time.

Sun Nov 24 202418:47Isaac Okoro Good To Go Sunday
Cleveland Cavaliers forward Isaac Okoro (ankle) will return to the lineup on Sunday against Toronto. He was in danger of missing a third consecutive game due to a left ankle sprain, but Okoro has shaken off the injury. Okoro's playing style doesn't translate well into fantasy basketball, but he's an important piece for Cleveland and will give the team an additional option. Okoro's return will likely mean fewer minutes for Georges Niang, who has been riding some good momentum lately. However, with Caris LeVert (knee), Dean Wade (ankle), and long-term absentee Max Strus (ankle) still out, Niang might still provide fantasy value.

Tue Nov 19 202418:33Isaac Okoro Ruled Out For Tuesday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Isaac Okoro (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Boston Celtics. Okoro has been downgraded from questionable to out after he suffered a sprained left ankle during Sunday's game. The Cavs are also without Caris LeVert (knee), so that could mean big minutes for Georges Niang. The expectation is that Niang will play minutes in the mid or high 20s with the Cavs shorthanded. He has finished with double digit scoring in three of his last four games. Fantasy managers should consider Niang as a possible streaming option without Okoro available.

Tue Nov 19 202409:48Isaac Okoro Questionable To Face Celtics
Cleveland Cavaliers forward Isaac Okoro (ankle) is considered questionable for Tuesday's fascinating matchup against Boston. He suffered an ankle sprain against Charlotte on Sunday and might be forced to miss his first game of the season. Dean Wade (ankle) is already ruled out, and question marks are hanging over Caris LeVert (knee) and Sam Merrill (ankle), meaning Cleveland's rotation could have a very different look on Tuesday. The long list of injuries might give further opportunities to Ty Jerome, who impressed on Sunday with a 24-point, eight-assist effort.

Sat Sep 14 202416:50Isaac Okoro, Cavs Agree To A Three-Year Deal
According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, restricted free-agent forward Isaac Okoro agreed to a three-year, $38 million deal to remain with the Cleveland Cavaliers. Both sides have been at a stalemate regarding a new contract for months. However, things finally worked out, meaning the Cavs will retain a capable defender. Okoro has spent his entire four-year career in Cleveland. He's appeared in 279 regular-season contests for the club, averaging 8.5 points and 2.9 rebounds. With that in mind, the Cavs have Donovan Mitchell, Darius Garland, Evan Mobley, and Jarrett Allen doing most of the heavy lifting offensively, so there's little room for anyone else to get involved. As a result, Okoro likely won't see much attention from fantasy managers heading into the 2024-25 campaign. On the other hand, there could be streaming potential at some point during the season.

Sat Apr 6 202409:36Isaac Okoro To Remain Out On Saturday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Isaac Okoro (toe) will miss a fourth straight contest on Saturday against the Lakers. He's been kept off the court by a toe sprain. The versatile talent will get the next opportunity to return on Sunday when Cleveland faces the Clippers. Okoro's absence gives Georges Niang and Sam Merrill a chance to figure more prominently in the rotation, but they are seeing very inconsistent playing time. Caris LeVert will continue to lead the second unit on Saturday. It's a tough matchup against a team that has limited opposing benches to 45 percent shooting.

Wed Apr 3 202419:51Isaac Okoro Still Out On Wednesday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Isaac Okoro (toe) remains out for Wednesday's matchup with the Phoenix Suns. He's bothered by a toe sprain. But the Cavs are the healthiest they've been in a while, so the team can afford to keep the 23-year-old off the floor for at least a few more games. Although Okoro will likely head back to the bench once he returns, his absence on Wednesday should allow Sam Merrill, Marcus Morris Sr., and Georges Niang to see more action. However, none of those guys are consistent fantasy producers, considering Caris LeVert is the No. 1 option from off the bench.

Mon Apr 1 202421:54Isaac Okoro Set To Miss Second Consecutive Game
Cleveland Cavaliers forward Isaac Okoro (toe) has been ruled out for the second game in a row due to toe soreness. The 23-year-old was held out of their game against the Denver Nuggets which turned into a 23-point blowout loss. The Cavaliers are looking to stay in the third seed in the East, but they only remain a half of a game ahead of the New York Knicks. Okoro may not be the deciding factor in this situation or in fantasy matchups, but his absence will mean more minutes for the starters as well as Caris LeVert.

Sun Mar 31 202415:29Caris LeVert Returns For Cleveland On Sunday, Isaac Okoro Out
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Caris LeVert (wrist) will return from a one-game absence on Sunday versus Denver. LeVert couldn't play on Friday against Philadelphia due to wrist soreness but has shaken off the injury to jump back into action for a clash with the reigning champions. The 29-year-old has struggled in his most recent appearances, and Donovan Mitchell's return is bad news for him from a fantasy perspective, but the absence of Isaac Okoro (toe) should give LeVert some extra value. Okoro, who was hurt on Friday, has been downgraded from questionable to out.

Sat Mar 30 202422:30Isaac Okoro Questionable Against The Nuggets
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Isaac Okoro (toe) is questionable for Sunday's game against Denver. He played only 15 minutes in Friday's win over the Philadelphia 76ers. However, he now has a chance to miss Sunday's contest. But with Donovan Mitchell back in the lineup and Caris LeVert (wrist) listed as probable, Okoro could have a tough time getting anything going for DFS managers, assuming he's available, in a difficult matchup versus the champs.

Tue Mar 5 202418:52Isaac Okoro Available On Tuesday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Isaac Okoro (elbow) is expected to suit up on Tuesday against Boston. He landed on the injury report prior to the game as questionable with a left elbow sprain, but sources have told Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer that Okoro will be good to go for the contest. The 23-year-old is looking at his third straight game as Donovan Mitchell's (knee) replacement in the starting unit. Okoro has averaged 11.3 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 2.5 assists in a starting role this season.

Mon Mar 4 202420:33Isaac Okoro Iffy For Tuesday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Isaac Okoro (elbow) might not be able to play on Tuesday against the Celtics, as the team has listed him as questionable on the injury report. Cleveland's jack of all trades hasn't missed any action since Nov. 22, but his ironman streak could come to an end due to a left elbow sprain. Okoro has made back-to-back starts in Donovan Mitchell's (knee) absence. He's done well in all areas and could have a even bigger part to play on Tuesday, as Max Strus (knee) will be out of the lineup and Caris LeVert (elbow) might also miss the action.

Sat Nov 25 202309:42Isaac Okoro Listed As Questionable Saturday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Isaac Okoro (knee) is listed as questionable for Saturday's encounter with the Lakers. He's been a long-term absentee for the Cavaliers, having played his last game on Nov. 3 in an in-season tournament clash against Indiana. It's been a nine-game absence for Okoro, but he returned to practice on Friday and could back his comeback on Saturday. However, it's unlikely Okoro will play his normal minutes. The 22-year-old kicked off the campaign by logging close to 29 minutes a night. He's an all-around talent but doesn't really stand out in anything, and Okoro's return is definitely bigger news in real life than in fantasy basketball.

Sun Nov 12 202322:55Isaac Okoro Set To Miss Game Versus Kings
Cleveland Cavaliers forward Isaac Okoro (knee) will miss his fourth consecutive game due to knee soreness as the team has already ruled him out for Monday's contest against the Sacramento Kings. The 22-year-old last played on November 3 until his knee started flaring up and forced him to sit out. While he remains sidelined, Caris LeVert will see big minutes off of the bench, while Georges Niang and Dean Wade will see the next most opportunities in the second unit. LeVert would be the best streaming option if available while Niang and Wade would be better suited for deeper leagues.

Sat Nov 11 202309:21Isaac Okoro Misses Third Straight Game
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Isaac Okoro (knee) won't be available for a third straight game Saturday versus Golden State. He's on the injury report with a left knee issue. The 22-year-old kicked off the campaign in fine form, but he'll be running with the second unit this season, and it will limit Okoro's fantasy value, which has never been high. In 2023-24, he has averaged 9.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 1.2 steals in 28.8 minutes. Caris LeVert and Georges Niang should pick up the available minutes. The former has already gotten plenty of burn this season and is well worth a roster spot in most fantasy leagues.
