Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Plays 17 minutes in return
Wade (knee) finished Saturday's 106-93 loss to Boston in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference semifinal round with five points (2-6 FG, 1-4 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists and one block in 17 minutes.
Suiting up for the first time since March 8 after needing two months to heal up from a sprained knee, Wade captured a rotation spot and helped provide the Cavaliers with some much-needed depth in the frontcourt. Though he acquitted himself well during his time on the court, Wade is unlikely to see his role grow substantially as the series rolls along, especially once center Jarrett Allen (ribs) is back in action.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Doesn't practice, unlikely to play
Coach J.B. Bickerstaff said Wade (knee) didn't practice Wednesday and is unlikely to play in Saturday's Game 1 against the Magic, Evan Dammarell of FearTheSword.com reports.
Wade carved out a substantial role when the Cavaliers dealt with multiple injuries, mainly to Evan Mobley, earlier in the season, but he hasn't played since March 8 due to a knee injury. In Wade's likely absence, Georges Niang and Marcus Morris are candidates for a few extra minutes off the bench.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Shut down for regular season
Cavaliers head coach JB Bickerstaff said Friday that Wade (knee) won't play in Cleveland's final two regular season games, and his availability for the playoffs is uncertain, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.
Wade will miss his 18th and 19th straight games due to a right knee sprain to close out the regular season. In his last two appearances before being shut down with the injury, Wade had started and played 30-plus minutes on both occasions, but the Cavaliers were without Evan Mobley at that time. With Mobley now healthy, Wade will likely be ticketed for a small backup role in the frontcourt if he's cleared to play at some point during the postseason.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Rest of season in jeopardy
Wade's knee soreness is now being diagnosed as a knee sprain, and it's unclear if he will be able to return this season, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Wade has not taken the court since March 8, being sidelined for the last 12 contests. Fedor notes that Wade's knee "finally started making progress recently after the latest form of treatment," and that the coaching staff still regards him as day-to-day. His injury absence began just two games after booming for a career-high 23 points to fuel a comeback win over Boston on March 5. Wade has dealt with a myriad of lower body injuries dating back to his days at Kansas State, and he has been limited to a total of just 149 games across the past three seasons. Wade is doing "everything possible" to return to action, but it's safe to say that he can be ruled out for Cleveland's upcoming back-to-back set versus Utah and Phoenix on Tuesday and Wednesday, respectively.
