Peyton Watson (hamstring) out vs. Mavericks

Peyton Watson

CLE Guard #8

Player Stats

Peyton Watson (hamstring) has been ruled out against the Mavericks on Saturday.

Just like the other four starters, Watson will be sidelined for this game. With Jaylon Tyson already starting in place of Evan Mobley on Friday, Mario Hezonja should enter the starting unit.

Meleek Thomas

CLE Guard #15

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Meleek Thomas, Tyrese Proctor, Jaylon Tyson, Mario Hezonja and Thomas Bryant will start against the Mavericks on Saturday.

The Cavs played in Miami on Friday and then had flight delays (like everyone did) that prevented them from returning to Cleveland when they intended. So they’re resting the entire starting five. It will be five new starters for the Cavs, though they will all likely return to reserve roles in their next game.

CLE Guard #8

Peyton Watson (hamstring) is questionable for Saturday’s game against the Mavericks.

Watson is on the crowded Cavaliers injury report as questionable with right hamstring injury management. Cleveland’s rotation is truly up in the air until we have more clarity on some of these injury situations.
Evan Mobley

CLE Center #4

Evan Mobley (toe) has been ruled out for Friday’s game against the Heat.

This will be Mobley’s first absence of the season. Mario Hezonja is the likely candidate to replace him in the starting unit, though they could opt for a smaller starting unit with Peyton Watson at power forward, which would open the door for multiple players to fill in, including Meleek Thomas and Jaylon Tyson.
Peyton Watson

CLE Guard #8

Peyton Watson amassed 13 points (5-of-9 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), two rebounds, one assist and two three-pointers in Monday’s loss to the Hornets.

Watson led the Cavaliers’ starters in scoring on Monday in arguably the team’s most disappointing performance of the season. Head coach Kenny Atkinson decided at the end of the third that he’d seen enough, so no starter played in the final quarter. Watson and the Cavaliers will look to bounce back on Wednesday against the Knicks.
Peyton Watson

CLE Guard #8

Peyton Watson accounted for 12 points (5-of-11 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), six rebounds, two assists, one steal, two blocks and one three-pointer in Saturday’s loss to the Knicks.

After playing 28 minutes in Friday’s win over the 76ers, Watson played 29 minutes on Saturday without issue. The Cavaliers forward finished with a complete stat line, including three defensive contributions. Shooting 39.1 percent from the field, Watson’s production has not aligned with his ADP (118). But given his role, it isn’t difficult to envision him providing top-100 value by season’s end.
Mario Hezonja

CLE Forward-Guard #33

Mario Hezonja tallied 15 points (6-of-13 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), 10 rebounds, one assist, one steal and two three-pointers in Friday’s win over the 76ers.

Although he didn’t start on Friday, Hezonja’s role grew in importance because the Cavaliers were without Jarrett Allen (knee). The 6-foot-8 forward, who is bulkier than he was during his first stint in the NBA, led the Cavaliers with 10 rebounds, recording his first double-double of the season. If Allen remains out for Saturday’s game against the Knicks, Hezonja may be worthy of consideration in deep leagues as a streamer.
Peyton Watson

CLE Guard #8

Peyton Watson (hamstring) accumulated 13 points (6-of-14 FGs), nine rebounds, two assists and one three-pointer in Friday’s win over the 76ers.

Back in the Cavaliers’ lineup after a two-game absence, Watson started and played 28 minutes on Friday. He didn’t record any defensive stats, but the Cavaliers’ forward offered needed contributions on the glass. With Jarrett Allen (knee) out, Watson started at power forward, and his nine rebounds were the most among Cavaliers starters and his most in a game this season. Given the hamstring injury, we’ll see if Watson plays on Saturday against the Knicks.
Peyton Watson

CLE Guard #8

Peyton Watson (hamstring) is available for Friday’s game against the 76ers.

Watson is back after missing Cleveland’s last two games with a hamstring injury. With Jarrett Allen (knee) out, Watson could move to power forward, with either Tyrese Proctor or Meleek Thomas as the fifth starter.

CLE Guard #8

Peyton Watson (hamstring) is questionable to play against the 76ers on Friday.

Watson has missed the last two games, with Meleek Thomas and Tyrese Proctor, who is also questionable for Friday, each getting a start. Jarrett Allen (knee) is questionable as well, so the status of all three questionable players will determine the starting unit.

CLE Guard #8

Peyton Watson (hamstring) is out for Wednesday’s game against the Thunder.

Watson sat out Monday’s loss to the Thunder, and Meleek Thomas made his first career start. He played 26 minutes, while Mario Hezonja played 27 minutes off the bench. Both should take on similar workloads in Wednesday’s rematch.
