Evan Mobley

With Jarrett Allen (finger) sidelined, there's more room for Mobley to operate on both ends of the floor. Despite the outcome of Wednesday's game, Mobley recorded the kind of stat line that fantasy managers hope to see consistently. His five blocked shots were a season-high, and the Cavaliers' forward/center has provided top-20 fantasy value over the past two weeks. Mobley will look to continue this run on Friday when the Spurs visit.

Clingan could be unavailable for the second night of this back-to-back. Kris Murray started during Clingan's last absence, but he is questionable with a hip contusion. If both are out, Yang Hansen and Duop Reath would occupy the center minutes, though in a matchup with Evan Mobley, that wouldn't make either ideal streaming targets.

Mobley recorded 27 points (11-17 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 14 rebounds and four assists in 38 minutes during Sunday's 117-115 loss to the Celtics.

It wasn't enough to get the win, but Mobley was able to turn in one of his best statistical performances of the season, which included new season highs for both rebounds and assists. The return of Jarrett Allen (finger) after three straight absences didn't prevent Mobley from having a big night. A drop in shooting percentages has been the main culprit behind Mobley's drop in nine-cat value, but performances like this one will make up for inefficient shooting.

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.
