Rotoworld Player News

Jarrett Allen

CLE Center #31

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Jarrett Allen producted 12 points (5-of-5 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), seven rebounds, one assist, one block and one three-pointer in Monday’s loss to the Hornets.

One of the few positives for the Cavaliers on Monday was that Allen hit his third three-pointer of the season. By comparison, he shot 3-for-41 from deep over his prior five seasons. Allen isn’t going to become a face-up center anytime soon, so there’s no need to entertain what that could do for his fantasy value. But he didn’t miss a shot from the field on Monday, which is a positive for fantasy managers rostering him.
Meleek Thomas

CLE Guard #15

Meleek Thomas finished Monday’s loss to the Hornets with 18 points (7-of-12 FGs), three rebounds, three assists, two steals, two blocks and four three-pointers.

With Cavaliers head coach Kenny Atkinson benching his starters for the entire fourth quarter, reserves like Thomas took on larger roles. The rookie wing scored 12 of his 18 points in the fourth, shooting 5-of-9 from the field. The 18 points were a season high for Thomas, who has scored in double figures in six of his eight appearances.
Donovan Mitchell

CLE Guard #45

Donovan Mitchell recorded 11 points (4-of-11 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), two rebounds, four assists, one steal and one three-pointer in Monday’s loss to the Hornets.

Like the other Cavaliers starters, Mitchell did not play at all in the fourth quarter. He and his backcourt partner, James Harden, had brutal first halves, scoring five points each while shooting a combined 2-of-13 from the field. They were more productive in the third quarter, but the damage was already done. The good news for fantasy managers is that Cleveland plays three more games this week.
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.
Jarrett Allen

CLE Center #31

James Harden, Donovan Mitchell, Peyton Watson, Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen will start Monday’s game against the Hornets.

Allen is back after a two-game absence, which allows the Cavaliers to roll out their preferred starting lineup. Meleek Thomas, who started Saturday’s loss to the Knicks, will come off the bench.
Jaylon Tyson

CLE Guard-Forward #20

Jaylon Tyson (ankle) is out for Monday’s game against the Hornets.

Tyson will miss a sixth straight game with a sprained right ankle. With Tyson and Sam Merrill out, the Cavaliers have relied more on Meleek Thomas and Tyrese Proctor. Also, Riley Minix played rotation minutes on Saturday against the Knicks.
Sam Merrill

CLE Guard #5

Sam Merrill (elbow) is out for Monday’s game against the Hornets.

Merrill will miss a second straight game due to what the Cavaliers are describing as right elbow injury management. In his absence, Meleek Thomas and Tyrese Proctor took on larger roles in Saturday’s loss to the Knicks. Of the two, Thomas offers a higher fantasy ceiling, especially if Jarrett Allen (knee) remains out.
Jarrett Allen

CLE Center #31

Jarrett Allen (knee) is questionable for Monday’s game against the Hornets.

Allen has missed the Cavaliers’ last two games, most recently sitting out Saturday’s loss to the Knicks. Meleek Thomas started the last time out and could remain in that role if Allen can’t play.
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.
Evan Mobley

CLE Center #4

Evan Mobley recorded 12 points (5-of-11 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), nine rebounds, five assists and one three-pointer in Saturday’s loss to the Knicks.

After shining in Friday’s win over the 76ers and dominating his matchup against Joel Embiid, Mobley struggled against New York’s Karl-Anthony Towns. The Cavaliers center shot a respectable percentage from the field on Saturday, but there were no defensive stats to speak of. If Jarrett Allen (knee) returns on Monday against the Hornets, Mobley will slide over to his usual power forward spot.
