With Darius Garland (toe) sidelined for the second leg of this back-to-back, Tyson will return to the starting lineup. Tyson started the last three games before Garland made his season debut and will replace him once again. Cleveland has another back-to-back on Wednesday and Thursday, which should be another chance for Tyson to start.

The Cavaliers welcome back Garland, Allen and Sam Merrill for Wednesday’s game, with the first two entering the starting lineup immediately. Allen’s return means that Larry Nance Jr. heads to the bench, with Garland stepping in for the ill De’Andre Hunter. Tyson will remain in the starting lineup, with Merrill coming off the bench.

While the Cavaliers’ injuries thus far have been aggravating, Tyson’s increased confidence has been a positive. The second-year wing, filling in for Sam Merrill, has scored 18 points or more in three straight games. Rostered in five percent of Yahoo! leagues, Tyson is providing 12th-round value in eight-cat formats. However, Cleveland plays three games during Week 3, and none until Wednesday. If Merrill remains out, Tyson will be worth a look in deep leagues, but there’s no need to move right now.

Tyson entered Wednesday averaging 5.3 points per game, scoring no more than nine points in his previous four appearances. However, with Sam Merrill (hip) unavailable, the second-year wing had his best night of the season. Tyson was efficient offensively and finished a blocked shot shy of a complete stat line. One game does not make Tyson a player to grab off the waiver wire, but that could change if Merrill misses more time.

The Cavaliers are down another starter, as Sam Merrill (hip) will not play. Tyson, who started the first two games for the then-injured Hunter, will replace him in the lineup. Tyson hasn’t done enough to merit being streamed, but he’ll have opportunities to change that on Wednesday.

The second-year wing got the starting nod with Darius Garland (toe) and Max Strus (foot) sidelined, and while he wasn’t able to get any shots to fall, he still made an impact on this game, specifically on the defensive end. He played all his minutes with the starters, and there’s certainly a chance he opens the regular season in the starting lineup, making him potentially worth a late-round pick.

With Darius Garland (toe) and Max Strus (foot) both sidelined, Hunter and Tyson will occupy spots in the starting lineup. Hunter was expected to start, but Tyson comes as a surprise after not seeing the floor much during his rookie year. It’s the first preseason game, so this doesn’t lock him into the role to start the regular season, but he’s worth keeping an eye on as a dynasty stash and potential late-round sleeper in redraft leagues.

After scoring 20 points in Thursday’s summer league opener, Tyson was one point better on Sunday. He’s shown the Cavaliers plenty in Las Vegas, even if the role does not align with what the 2024 first-round pick will be asked to do once the regular season begins. There’s room for Tyson to step up and earn rotation minutes off the bench, and the Cavaliers are counting on him to do that. While that may not do much for his value in redraft leagues, it may boost Tyson in dynasty leagues.

With the Cavaliers trading Isaac Okoro to the Bulls, there will be room for a wing defender within the team’s rotation next season. The hope is that Tyson, the 20th overall pick in the 2024 draft, can help fill that void. Solid defensively against the Pacers, he was especially good at setting up others offensively. Tyson is not a player who needs to be selected in standard league drafts, but fantasy managers in deeper leagues should track his progress in Las Vegas and during the preseason in September.

Tyson was a first-round pick last summer, but he wasn’t able to carve out a role on a talented Cavs team. That isn’t an indictment of his talent since Cleveland finished with the best record in the East. He took advantage of the opportunity to play a significant role in this game and had the best game of his young career. Tyson won’t be a factor for them during the postseason, but he has a bright future in the league.

Tyson is off the Cavaliers’ injury report for Wednesday, meaning he may play rotation minutes since Ty Jerome is out. However, the rookie has not been productive enough to merit being streamed in most leagues.

This will be the fifth-straight game that Tyson has missed, and it is unclear when he will be back in the lineup. However, he hasn’t been a large part of the rotation recently even when healthy.

This will be a third-straight absence for Tyson, though he hasn’t been a consistent part of the rotation when healthy. He may have seen a bump in minutes with Donovan Mitchell out on Tuesday, but he won’t get that opportunity.

Tyson will miss a second consecutive game with a knee issue. The rookie has not been in the Cavaliers’ rotation when healthy, so his absence will not impact fantasy basketball.

Tyson did not play in Friday’s loss to the Suns, as a sore left knee put him on the sidelines. The rookie’s status does not significantly impact fantasy basketball, as he is not guaranteed rotation minutes when healthy.

Tyson will miss this game after being a late addition to the injury report. The rookie’s role has been minimal since the All-Star break, so this won’t impact the team’s rotation.

The rookie is a late addition to the injury report, so it wouldn’t be surprising if he was sidelined for Friday’s game. However, he hasn’t been a consistent part of Cleveland’s rotation since the All-Star break.
