NBC SportsJaylon Tyson notched 14 points (6-of-9 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), seven rebounds, two assists and one three-pointer in Wednesday's loss to the Trail Blazers.

Tyson's final stat line wasn't eye-popping, but he continues to hold down a place in the starting lineup. With Jarrett Allen (finger) out for at least another week, the second-year wing should be considered in a broader range of fantasy leagues. Over the past two weeks, Tyson has provided eighth-round value in eight-cat formats. Yet he's still rostered in just 22 percent of Yahoo! leagues.

NBC SportsDarius Garland (toe) is not on the injury report for Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers.

Garland did not play in Monday's win over the Pacers, which moved Dean Wade into the starting lineup. Wade should head back to the bench, with Jaylon Tyson continuing to start. The second-year wing has played well this season, most recently scoring 27 points on Monday.

NBC SportsSam Merrill (hand) has been ruled out against the Trail Blazers on Wednesday.

This will be an eighth straight absence for Merrill, and there hasn't been much clarity as to how much longer he'll be out. Jaylon Tyson will continue to play a large role, even if he is pushed to the bench with Darius Garland back. Craig Porter Jr. and Tyrese Proctor will also continue to see added minutes off the bench, though neither will play enough to be worth streaming.

NBC SportsDarius Garland, Donovan Mitchell, De'Andre Hunter, Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen will start Friday's game against the Hawks.

The Cavaliers will start their preferred five on Friday, with Garland, Hunter and Allen back in the fold. Their returns push Lonzo Ball, Jaylon Tyson and Larry Nance Jr. to the bench, although Allen's minutes may be restricted due to the amount of time he's missed.
