Caris LeVert (elbow) added to Cavaliers injury report Friday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Caris LeVert (right elbow sprain) is now questionable for Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons.
What It Means:
LeVert is a late addition to the injury report and might miss his 11th game of the season. Donovan Mitchell (knee) is also questionable, so the Cavaliers could be thin in the backcourt on Friday night. That would likely result in extended minutes for Sam Merrill and Craig Porter, as well as more ball-handling opportunities for Darius Garland.
numberFire's models project LeVert for 25.7 minutes and 23.4 FanDuel points on Friday. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Cavs' implied total (115.0) is No. 7 out of 14 teams on the Main slate.
