Bryant

While the contract amount was not reported, Bryant is likely to be on the veteran’s minimum. In his first season with the Cavaliers, he averaged 12.1 minutes per game in 60 appearances. Unless something unexpected were to happen with Jarrett Allen or Evan Mobley, Bryant is unlikely to get the playing time needed to affect fantasy basketball. He’ll give the Cavaliers additional post depth off the bench.

Bryant’s availability adds more frontcourt depth for the Cavaliers ahead of Game 4. The veteran center has only logged 35 total minutes this postseason across four games, totaling seven points and three rebounds. Cleveland will try to even the series up before heading to Detroit for Game 5.

Bryant is dealing with low back spasms that may keep him out of Monday’s home game against Detroit. The backup big man has logged only 25 total minutes this postseason, so his availability won’t have much of an impact on Cleveland’s rotation.

Bryant’s return from a six-game absence will give the Cavaliers another depth option in the frontcourt. The veteran center averaged 6.2 points and 3.4 rebounds per game during the regular season.

Bryant is expected to return following a six-game absence, but his availability won’t have much impact on Cleveland’s rotation. He’ll serve as a depth option in the frontcourt.

Bryant has missed Cleveland’s last six games, including the first two games of this series, with a strained left calf. His absence has not significantly affected the Cavaliers’ rotation, as all of the other frontcourt options have been healthy.

Bryant remains out with a strained left calf, with Monday’s game being the sixth that he has missed. His continued absence won’t have a significant impact on the Cavaliers’ frontcourt rotation, as all of the key contributors are healthy.

Bryant missed Cleveland’s final four regular-season games with a strained left calf, and the injury will keep him out for Saturday’s series opener as well. With Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley available, Bryant’s minutes were going to be limited if he were healthy enough to play.

While Ellis and Schröder were active for Friday’s loss to the Hawks, Bryant has missed Cleveland’s last three games with a strained calf. On the perimeter, Craig Porter Jr. and Tyrese Proctor should play significant minutes, while Olivier Sarr and Tristan Enaruna should pick up rotation minutes in the frontcourt.

Friday’s absence will mark the third straight for Bryant, who continues to battle a calf issue. The Cavs will also be without starting center Jarrett Allen, leaving their frontcourt depth fairly thin. Larry Nance Jr. could see an increase in minutes as a result of the injuries.
