    Jamal Murray (left calf strain) is officially available for Saturday’s game against the Timberwolves.

  • Will play in Game 1
    Murray (calf) will play in Game 1 against the Timberwolves on Saturday, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

    Advice: Murray went through his usual warmup for Game 1 and completed it with no setbacks, so the star floor general will be available to handle his regular workload in the series opener against Minnesota. Murray was stellar in the first round against the Lakers, hitting two game-winning shots and averaging 23.6 points, 4.6 rebounds and 7.2 assists per game. Rotowire.com 7 minutes ago
     
  • Craig Porter Jr. (ankle) out for Game 7 on Sunday
    Craig Porter Jr. (left ankle sprain) is out for Sunday’s game against the Magic.

    Advice: Porter’s continued absence will not impact the Cavaliers’ rotation, as he has not played since the regular season finale. Even if he were healthy, starters Darius Garland and Donovan Mitchell will log heavy minutes as Cleveland looks to avoid another first-round exit. Rotoworld 48 minutes ago
     
  • Gary Harris (hamstring) questionable for Game 7
    Gary Harris (right hamstring strain) is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Cavaliers.

    Advice: After injuring his hamstring during Tuesday’s Game 5 loss to the Cavaliers, Harris did not play in Game 6 on Friday. Jonathan Isaac returned to the starting lineup, making Orlando the first team in postseason history to start four players listed as 6-foot-10 or taller. Isaac did not score in Game 6, but he did grab nine rebounds in 23 minutes on the court. Rotoworld 50 minutes ago
     
  • Jarrett Allen (ribs) questionable for Game 7 Sun.
    Jarrett Allen (right rib contusion) is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Magic.

    Advice: Allen missed Games 5 and 6 of this series, with the Cavaliers initially considering him questionable for both. If he cannot play in Game 7, who fills the void in the starting lineup is up in the air. While Isaac Okoro was tabbed to do so in Game 5, Marcus Morris Sr. received the starting nod for Game 6.

  • Out again Sunday

  • Questionable for Game 7
    Allen (ribs) is questionable to play in Sunday's Game 7 against the Magic.

    Advice: Allen has missed the last two games of the series while dealing with a rib injury, and the questionable tag doesn't shed a lot of light regarding his potential availability for the series finale. The Cavaliers need Allen to be at his best, though, as he's an influential piece of the team on both ends of the court. Allen is averaging 17.0 points, 13.8 rebounds and 1.3 steals per game in the first-round series against Orlando through four appearances. Rotowire.com 54 minutes ago
     
  • Questionable for Game 7
    Harris (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's Game 7 against the Cavaliers.

    Advice: After suffering his hamstring injury in Game 5, Harris missed his first game of the series on Friday in Game 6. If the veteran is unable to suit up Sunday, Jonathan Isaac could potentially make another start due to his defensive versatility. Rotowire.com 54 minutes ago
     
  • Expected to play Saturday

    Advice: Murray will go through his usual warmup for Game 1, and if he gets through it without any setbacks, he should be all set to take the court. Murray was terrific in the previous round against the Lakers, posting 23.6 points and 7.2 assists per game. Rotowire.com Today, 2:25 pm
