David Nwaba to sit for Cavaliers Monday due to sore knee
Cleveland Cavaliers point guard David Nwaba has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves with a sore right knee.
What It Means:
Nwaba is averaging 28.1 minutes over the past six games, so look for Rodney Hood, Jordan Clarkson, and Cedi Osman to all see a boost. His lack of availability on the defensive end will be an upgrade for Minnesota's playmakers.
Nwaba is averaging 13.4 FanDuel points through 14 games (three starts). Over the remainder of the year, numberFire's models expect him to record 6.0 points and 3.5 rebounds per contest.
