Cleveland Cavaliers guard Craig Porter Jr. (groin) is available for Monday's game against Utah after missing seven games with a left groin strain. The 26-year-old logged limited minutes before the injury, averaging 3.0 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 1.8 assists in 14.8 minutes across his recent appearances, and he is unlikely to see enough run to matter in most fantasy formats. His return mainly adds depth behind James Harden and Dennis Schroder. Porter can remain on waiver wires, with Sam Merrill and Keon Ellis still ahead in the rotation.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Craig Porter Jr. (groin) will be sidelined for the next one to three weeks after imaging confirmed a left groin strain. Porter averages just 18 minutes per game and was already outside the fantasy radar in most formats. His absence should not materially impact Cleveland's rotation, with James Harden and Donovan Mitchell handling most backcourt usage. Dennis Schroder and Keon Ellis could see marginal minutes increases, though neither gains meaningful fantasy appeal from this injury. Porter can remain on waivers in standard leagues.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Craig Porter Jr. (knee) has been upgraded from questionable to available for Sunday night's action against the Portland Trail Blazers. He missed Friday's loss to the Phoenix Suns due to a sore left knee. Lonzo Ball had a larger workload on Friday and will likely see less action against the Suns. Porter Jr. doesn't have a lot to offer to fantasy teams, averaging 4.9 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 3.0 assists in 17.6 minutes per game this season.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Craig Porter Jr. (knee) will miss Friday's matchup against the Phoenix Suns. He was a late addition to the injury report due to left knee soreness, and Cleveland has downgraded Porter Jr.'s status from questionable to out. Porter Jr. is a reserve playmaker for the Cavaliers, and his absence shouldn't significantly affect how the team operates. Lonzo Ball is a natural option to fill in for him.

Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Craig Porter Jr. (illness) will rejoin the action on Monday against the Charlotte Hornets. He has been cleared to return from a one-game absence after the team initially listed Porter Jr. as probable for the contest. With Donovan Mitchell (illness) and Sam Merrill (hand) also back in the lineup, Porter Jr. will have a limited role in the rotation and won't offer much fantasy value. During the season, the 25-year-old has posted 5.0 points, 3.1 rebounds, and 2.4 assists in 16.4 minutes per game.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Craig Porter Jr. (illness) won't be in the lineup on Friday against the Chicago Bulls, Joel Lorenzi of The Athletic reports. The Cavaliers seem to be dealing with an illness bug in the locker room, as Porter Jr. will join Donovan Mitchell (illness) on the sidelines. He was initially listed as questionable for the game. With two backcourt players out, Lonzo Ball could receive extended minutes to show his former team that they are missing. Rookie Tyrese Proctor might also pick up additional shifts in the rotation.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Craig Porter Jr. (hamstring) will play on Sunday night against Boston after missing the last three games because of a strained left hamstring. The Cavs will be without Jarrett Allen (finger), Lonzo Ball (knee), Sam Merrill (hand), and Larry Nance Jr. (calf), meaning there will be minutes up for grabs. While Porter will presumably come off the bench, he should see enough minutes to warrant starting consideration in any fantasy setup.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Sam Merrill (hand) and guardCraig Porter Jr.(hamstring) will miss Monday's matchup with the Toronto Raptors. Tonight's clash will be the fourth game in a row that Merrill will miss due to a right-hand sprain. A lingering hamstring injury will keep Porter out of action for the second straight contest. With a depleted Cavs backcourt, fantasy managers could turn to Lonzo Ball, who is expected to see plenty of minutes this evening.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Craig Porter Jr. (thumb) has been cleared to play ahead of Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Porter hasn't played in each of the last three games due to a right thumb sprain. He's available on Saturday, but hasn't seen more than eight minutes when healthy. However, Caris LeVert (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's game. That should mean more minutes for Porter in the rotation, but he won't be a reliable streaming option with the Cavs mostly healthy.

Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Craig Porter Jr. (thumb) is listed as doubtful for Friday night's matchup against the Orlando Magic. Porter is dealing with a thumb strain that has kept him out of Cleveland's last two games. Even when active, though, the 24-year-old has only gotten minutes during garbage time. Cleveland is likely to give Porter enough time to properly heal given their hot start and lack of need for additional production from their guard positions. Caris LeVert, Ty Jerome and Sam Merrill have all clearly shown they are more dynamic options in front of Porter. Fantasy managers looking for value off Cleveland's bench should set their sights on one of these three guards rather than Porter.
