Wade is back after missing Cleveland’s final three games before the All-Star break. However, his return coincides with that of Evan Mobley (calf), so there may not be enough minutes available for Wade to affect fantasy basketball. Fantasy managers can afford to leave Wade on the waiver wire.

Friday’s game will be the fifth that Wade has missed due to a left knee contusion. With Sam Merrill (hand) also out, the Cavaliers will have to rely even more on Jaylon Tyson, who has already been productive enough to merit being rostered in some 12-team formats.

This will be a fourth straight absence for Wade. Sam Merrill has played well as a starter in his place, though Jaylon Tyson has also taken on extra minutes and has contributed well off the bench over the Cavaliers’ last two games.

Wade, who returned from a two-game absence with a left knee contusion, exited Tuesday’s win over the Pacers before halftime and did not return. Jaylon Tyson replaced him in the lineup to begin the second half, and he should be the replacement on Thursday. Tyson, who’s considered probable with an illness, is worth rostering when he’s allowed to start.

Wade makes his return after a two-game absence and will be in the starting lineup for Tuesday’s game, pushing Jaylon Tyson to the bench. Tyson will still play plenty, so fantasy managers who have him rostered should not panic. The other change is Merrill, who steps into the void left by Donovan Mitchell (rest).

Nae’Qwan Tomlin started this game with Darius Garland (toe) sidelined, and while he was able to contribute 13 points in 18 minutes, he wasn’t as effective as Wade. Though he typically hasn’t been a productive player in fantasy basketball, he was able to start the second half and turn in a strong stat line during his 29 minutes on the floor. Wade isn’t worth rostering, but he played well in this game.

With Darius Garland sitting out the second leg of Cleveland’s back-to-back, Wade will slide into the starting lineup, which will shift Donovan Mitchell up to point guard. Wade is a reliable veteran presence, but he hasn’t been able to be productive in fantasy basketball when given a larger role in the past.

The Cavaliers will be down multiple rotation frontcourt players for Monday’s game, with Wade joining starter Jarrett Allen (finger) on the sideline. There should be more minutes available to Nae’Qwan Tomlin, but he hasn’t been productive enough to merit being streamed in this spot.
