Lauri Markkanen (ankle) available Thursday for Cavaliers
Cleveland Cavaliers power forward Lauri Markkanen (ankle) is available to play on Thursday against the Detroit Pistons.
What It Means:
Markkanen has been upgraded from probable, but he will have his minutes monitored in what will be his first game since January 22. Kevin Love, Evan Mobley, Dean Wade, and Cedi Osman could see reduced playing time as a result of Markkanen's return to the rotation.
numberFire’s models project Markkanen for 27.0 minutes and 24.5 FanDuel points, and he has a $4,600 salary on Thursday’s seven-game slate.
