Isaac Okoro back to Cavaliers' bench Wednesday
Cleveland Cavaliers small forward Isaac Okoro is not in the starting lineup Wednesday against the Philadelphia 76ers.
What It Means:
Okoro started last game and played 32 minutes, but he went 1-of-11 from the field and failed to provide much for the Cavaliers and fantasy owners. Lamar Stevens (illness), Kevin Love (thumb), and Jarrett Allen (back) are all still out, so Okoro should still see a fair amount of minutes off the bench. Mamadi Diakite is replacing Okoro in the starting lineup Wednesday.
numberFire's models project Okoro for 24.1 minutes and 14.0 FanDuel points on Wednesday, and he has a $3,500 salary on the Main slate. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Cavaliers’ implied total (106.75) is second-lowest out of 26 active teams today.
