Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Evan Mobley (ankle) will play in Friday's Game 3 against the Indiana Pacers. He missed the second game of the series due to an ankle sprain but has made a quick recovery, with the team upgrading Mobley's status from questionable to available before tip-off. With him back in the lineup, Dean Wade will have to settle for a spot in the second unit. Mobley started the series well, posting 20 points, 10 rebounds, two assists, and two steals in Game 1.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Evan Mobley (ankle) has been listed as questionable on the injury report ahead of Friday's Game 3 against the Indiana Pacers. Cleveland hopes Mobley can return from an ankle sprain suffered in the series opener. With him out, Dean Wade received an opportunity to start in Tuesday's Game 2. The 28-year-old was among the game's leading rebounders with 10 boards but contributed only three points on 1-for-4 shooting. Wade also recorded three assists and one steal in 30 minutes. He will likely maintain an expanded role if Mobley cannot return on Friday.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Evan Mobley (ankle) will not play in Tuesday's Game 2 against the Indiana Pacers. The 2025 NBA Defensive Player of the Year injured his left ankle in Game 1 and was listed as questionable on the initial injury report. The Cavaliers have already been without Darius Garland (toe) and must also do without De'Andre Hunter (thumb) on Tuesday, leaving the team shorthanded. Donovan Mitchell and Ty Jerome are sure to take on leading roles on offense, while Isaac Okoro and Dean Wade are set for a substantial increase in minutes.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Evan Mobley (ankle) may be forced to sit out Tuesday's Game 2 against the Indiana Pacers after the team listed him as questionable for the clash. Mobley opened the series with an impressive performance on Sunday, but he also injured his left ankle. The first-year All-Star finished Game 1 with 20 points, 10 rebounds, two assists, and two steals in 36 minutes. De'Andre Hunter (thumb) was also hurt in the contest, and Cavaliers head coach Kenny Atkinson said after Monday's practice that there is "real concern" about the availability of the two for Tuesday night. Dean Wade and Isaac Okoro will have to step up if Mobley and Hunter can't take the court on Tuesday, while Atkinson may also introduce a new big man into the rotation.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Evan Mobley had a 20-point, 10-rebound double-double in the opening game of the Eastern Conference semi-finals versus Indiana. He added two steals. Unfortunately, the reigning NBA Defensive Player of the Year had trouble taking care of the ball, committing a game-high four turnovers on the night. Still, Mobley was at least efficient from the field, going 9-for-13, while draining two of his five attempts from deep. With the Pacers taking Game 1, both clubs will go at it again on Tuesday night. While head coach Kenny Atkinson will surely make some adjustments, Mobley will likely see between 30-35 minutes of work.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Evan Mobley (rest) will not suit up for Thursday's game against the Indiana Pacers. The team has nothing left to play for in the regular season and will give Mobley some time off to rest. He will be joined on the sidelines by Darius Garland (toe), Donovan Mitchell (ankle), and Max Strus (knee), meaning the Cavaliers will head into action without four of their regular starters. Players such as Ty Jerome, Sam Merrill, De'Andre Hunter, and Dean Wade are set to play more prominent roles in the rotation.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Evan Mobley will sit out Thursday's contest against the San Antonio Spurs. Cleveland is cruising at the top of the Eastern Conference and has begun resting its key players, and it has given the team a chance to rest one of its key players in Mobley. De'Andre Hunter and Dean Wade will compete for Mobley's starting position on Thursday. Wade's game doesn't translate well to fantasy, so managers should focus on Hunter, who averaged 24.5 points against the Spurs in two meetings when he was still a member of the Atlanta Hawks earlier this season.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Evan Mobley (foot) will play on Tuesday versus the Clippers, barring a pregame setback. He wasn't available for Sunday's loss to the Orlando Magic because of a foot injury. As a result, De'Andre Hunter entered the starting lineup, finishing with nine points and five boards. While Hunter will still see minutes from off the bench, he may have a tough time getting it done for fantasy managers with Mobley, Donovan Mitchell, Darius Garland, and Jarrett Allen on the floor.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Evan Mobley (foot) may sit out a second consecutive game on Tuesday against the Los Angeles Clippers, as he has been listed as questionable on the injury report. The talented big man is trying to overcome a right foot contusion. If Mobley can't return on Tuesday, De'Andre Hunter will likely remain in the first unit. He had a bad time against the Orlando Magic on Sunday, notching only nine points on 2-for-11 shooting, but it has been a good campaign for Hunter. The former Atlanta Hawk is averaging a career-high 17.6 points, despite being a starter in only eight of his 51 appearances.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Evan Mobley (foot) won't play on Sunday against Orlando. He had 22 points, 11 rebounds, and two blocks in Friday's win over the Grizzlies. But he'll sit this one out because of a foot contusion. Donovan Mitchell (groin) is cleared to suit up after missing the last two games, so that will help lessen the blow. There should also be room for Ty Jerome and De'Andre Hunter to see more minutes and involvement.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Evan Mobley (rest) won't play on Tuesday against Chicago. Fortunately, he's not injured. But the 2021 No. 3 overall pick will take the night off to rest before likely returning for Wednesday's matchup with the Miami Heat. Without Mobley on the floor, Donovan Mitchell, Darius Garland, and Jarrett Allen should all see more scoring opportunities. The same could apply for De'Andre Hunter, who will likely enter the starting lineup. Ty Jerome, coming off a 25-point effort in Sunday's overtime win over Portland, should also remain more involved off the bench.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell and center Evan Mobley won Saturday's Skills Challenge during All-Star weekend. There was some controversy when San Antonio Spurs players Chris Paul and Victor Wembanyama were disqualified from the contest. Regardless, Mitchell and Mobley dominated, so they didn't need much help. Both players have been a key reason why the Cavs had so much success in the first half of the season. They both should remain top tier fantasy options for the rest of the season as long as the Cavs don't start resting players down the stretch.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Evan Mobley (calf) will end a four-game absence on Saturday against the Houston Rockets. He has finally shaken off a calf strain that Mobley sustained a couple of weeks back. Mobley recently put together a four-game double-double streak and is averaging 19.4 points and 9.1 rebounds for the month. His form gets a big test on Saturday, as the Rockets have the second-highest rebounding rate in the league and boast the third-best defensive rating.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Evan Mobley (calf) won't play on Friday against the Philadelphia 76ers. The 23-year-old logged only 50 games in 2023-24. But he missed only two of the Cavs' first 40 games this season, giving fantasy managers hope he would remain on the court. Unfortunately, Mobley has been sidelined for the last three contests because of a calf strain, and it's unknown how much longer he'll be on the shelf. He has averaged a career-high 18.6 points with 8.8 rebounds and 1.4 blocks during the 2024-25 campaign, so this is not an ideal scenario for fantasy managers. With that in mind, until Mobley returns, Max Strus, averaging 7.0 points, 3.5 assists, and 1.0 steals in two starts this season, will likely remain with the first five.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Evan Mobley (calf) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Houston. He is forced to miss a third straight game due to a right calf strain. Caris LeVert (wrist) and Max Strus have shared starts during Mobley's absence. LeVert has also picked up an injury and is questionable for Wednesday's game. This means Strus will likely remain among the starters, though he recorded only nine points, two rebounds, and two assists on Monday versus Phoenix. An ankle injury has limited Strus to 14 appearances this season, and he has been far from his best, averaging 7.6 points while shooting 39.8 percent from the field.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Evan Mobley (calf) has been ruled out of Monday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Mobley strained his right calf against the Thunder on Thursday night and was forced to miss Saturday's game against the Timberwolves as well. The 23-year-old has been a big piece of Cleveland's success this season, averaging 18.6 PPG and 8.8 RPG. In his absence, expect Jarrett Allen to get more usage in the starting lineup. Also expect Caris LeVert to be inserted into the starting lineup while George Niang should get more minutes off the bench. Niang grabbed 10 rebounds on Saturday while putting up 15 points. Niang should be a sneaky DFS play on Monday.

Cleveland Cavaliers center Evan Mobley (calf) has been ruled out ahead of Saturday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Mobley was questionable coming into this game after suffering a left calf injury. As a result, Mobley will sit out on Saturday, but will hopefully be back in the mix for Monday's game against the Phoenix Suns. The expectation is that Dean Wade and Max Strus will be impacted the most by the absence of Mobley. Strus hasn't been a great fantasy option this season, but figures to see significant minutes with the Cavs shorthanded for this game. He could be worth a look as a low-end streaming choice.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Evan Mobley (calf) is questionable for Saturday's game against Minnesota. After missing 32 games last season, the 23-year-old has been sidelined for just two contests during the 2024-25 campaign. Not only that, he's also had the best year of his career, averaging 18.6 points with 8.8 rebounds and 1.4 blocks while shooting 42.1% from deep. If Mobley doesn't suit up, Max Strus could find himself back in the starting lineup, with Dean Wade sliding over to the four spot. Georges Niang would presumably also see more action, giving all three players a bump in fantasy potential on Saturday. However, Mobley's absence will likely benefit Darius Garland, Donovan Mitchell, and Jarrett Allen the most.

Cleveland Cavaliers center Evan Mobley (ankle) is available ahead of Monday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. Mobley is active after missing their last game due to a left ankle sprain. There was no word on a minutes limit, so fantasy managers should expect Mobley to be a full-go on Monday. The Cavs used a committee approach between Georges Niang and Dean Wade to fill the void on Friday. Both players are expected to go back to their regular roles on Monday. Fantasy managers can go ahead and get Mobley active in their lineups ahead of tip-off.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Evan Mobley (ankle) is expected to return after just a one-game absence due to an ankle sprain. He's officially listed as probable for Monday's game against the Brooklyn Nets and should return to the starting five. With Mobley back in the fold, that means the whole starting five is healthy. Mobley averages 18.3 points, 9.1 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 1.1 steals, and 1.5 blocks per game. His return affects Jarrett Allen's value the most, but both are still viable against a weaker Nets squad.
