    • Jarrett Allen (ribs) out Tuesday vs. Celtics
      Jarrett Allen (right rib contusion) has been ruled out for Tuesday’s Cavaliers-Celtics matchup

      Advice: Allen is set to miss a third consecutive contest after suffering a rib injury against Orlando in the first round. Evan Mobley will play more minutes at center while Isaac Okoro, Marcus Morris, and Tristan Thomson get a shot to be a larger part of the frontcourt rotation. Rotoworld Tuesday, 3:41 pm
       
    • Won't play Tuesday
      Allen (ribs) has been ruled out for Tuesday's Game 1 against the Celtics, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

      Advice: Allen will miss his fourth straight contest Tuesday after being downgraded from questionable to out due to a right rib contusion. Isaac Okoro will continue to start in his absence. Allen's next chance to suit up is Game 2 on Thursday. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 3:31 pm
       
    • Shines off bench in Game 2
      Alexander-Walker accumulated 14 points (5-9 FG, 4-7 3Pt), six rebounds, one assist and three blocks in 30 minutes during Monday's 106-80 win over the Nuggets in Game 2 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: As has been the case throughout the entire playoff run, Alexander-Walker was impressive and provided a scoring punch off the bench, unsettling the Nuggets with his long-range shooting and energy. Alexander-Walker averaged just 8.0 points per game during the regular season, but he's taken his play to another level in the playoffs, scoring in double digits in four of his six appearances while upping his scoring average to 11.3 points per game.

    • Jarrett Allen (ribs) questionable for Game 1
      Jarrett Allen (right rib contusion) is questionable to play in Game 1 against Boston on Tuesday.

      Advice: Allen missed the final three games of round one, with Isaac Okoro starting twice and Marcus Morris starting once. Okoro started Game 7, so he should start again if Allen is forced to miss the start of this series. Rotoworld Monday, 2:38 pm
       
    • Remains out
      Wade (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's Game 1 against the Celtics.

      Advice: Wade hasn't played since March 8 due to a right knee sprain. It's unclear if he'll get the green light at any point during the Eastern Conference Semifinals, but unless Cleveland provides an update, Wade can be considered day-to-day. Rotowire.com Monday, 2:37 pm
       
    • Iffy for Game 1
      Allen (ribs) is questionable for Tuesday's Game 1 against the Celtics.

      Advice: Allen averaged 17.0 points, 13.8 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 1.0 blocks in 31.8 minutes through the first four games of Cleveland's opening-round series versus the Magic. However, after taking a shot to the ribs from Franz Wagner, the Cavaliers' starting center was sidelined for the final three matchups. Allen was also listed as questionable ahead of all the games he missed, so the tag doesn't provide much optimism heading into the Eastern Conference Semifinals. If Allen gets the green light, he'll look to take advantage of a Boston frontcourt that'll be without Kristaps Porzingis (calf). Rotowire.com Monday, 2:34 pm
       
    • Back to bench
      Morris won't start Sunday's Game 7 against the Magic, Serena Winters of Bally Sports Cleveland reports.

      Advice: With Jarrett Allen (hip) sidelined, Morris got a chance in the starting unit during Game 6 but finished with just two points (1-7 FG) and eight rebounds in 27 minutes during a disappointing loss. Coach J.B. Bickerstaff has reinserted Isaac Okoro into the starting lineup in place of Morris for the decisive Game 7. In Game 5, Morris came off the bench and posted 12 points (4-9 FG) in 26 minutes. Rotowire.com Sunday, 9:36 am
       
    • Remains out for Game 7
      Allen (ribs) has been ruled out for Sunday's Game 7 against the Magic, Serena Winters of Bally Sports Cleveland reports.

      Advice: Allen has been downgraded from questionable to out and will miss a third straight game due to a right rib contusion. Marcus Morris started Cleveland's Game 6 loss, but Isaac Okoro will move back into the lineup for Game 7 while Evan Mobley operates as the primary center. Rotowire.com Sunday, 9:30 am
       
    • Jarrett Allen out Sunday, Isaac Okoro to start
      Jarrett Allen (right rib contusion) will not play against the Magic in Game 7 on Sunday.

      Advice: Allen will miss a third straight game, but Isaac Okoro will start in his place for this one. Okoro started Game 5, but Marcus Morris slid into the starting lineup for Game 6. The home team has won every game this series, and Cleveland will look defend their court once again to close out the series. Rotoworld Sunday, 9:27 am
