Lauri Markkanen (ankle) starting for Cleveland on Monday; Kevin Love back to bench
Cleveland Cavaliers forward Lauri Markkanen will suit up Monday in the team's game against the Los Angeles Clippers.
What It Means:
Markkanen sat on Saturday due to right ankle soreness. However, the couple days off allowed him to recover, and he's now been given the green light to take the court on Tuesday. He'll also immediately start in his return, sending Kevin Love back to a bench role.
Our models project Markkanen for 15.0 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 27.3 FanDuel points across 32.2 minutes of action.
