  • Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Retreating to bench

    Wade isn't starting Monday's game against the Nets, Serena Winters of FanDuel Sports Network Ohio reports.

    Wade will shift back to a bench role now that both Isaac Okoro (knee) and Evan Mobley (ankle) have returned to health. The Kansas State product is averaging 3.6 points, 4.1 rebounds and 1.0 assists in his last seven appearances as a reserve.

  • Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Fares well as starter

    Wade amassed 11 points (3-7 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, one block and one steal in 29 minutes during Sunday's 122-113 loss to Miami.

    Isaac Okoro has been sidelined by a knee issue and is considered day-to-day, but Wade has shown the coaching staff what he's capable of. In his last two games, he's produced 9.0 points, 6.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 2.0 steals and 2.5 three-pointers. He'll be on the streaming radar in deeper formats if Okoro continues to miss time.

  • Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Starting vs. Charlotte

    Wade is starting Saturday's game against the Hornets, Serena Winters of FanDuel Sports Network Ohio reports.

    Wade will step into the starting small forward slot after Isaac Okoro was downgraded to out with a bruised knee. Wade began the season as a starter, averaging 6.9 points, 4.4 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.3 steals in 23.9 minutes (seven appearances).

  • Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Goes scoreless in return

    Wade (ankle) tallied zero points (0-5 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 0-2 FT), six rebounds, one assist and one steal in 19 minutes in Tuesday's 118-87 win over the Wizards.

    Though he couldn't get a shot to fall in his return from a six-game absence due to an ankle sprain, Wade didn't seem to be too limited on the evening, as he fell just a couple minutes short of matching the 21.9 minutes per game he had been averaging for the season. Wade had started in his first seven appearances of the campaign, but he looks like he'll operate as a bench player now that he's healthy again with the Cavaliers having seemingly settled on Isaac Okoro as their starting small forward.

  • Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Won't suit up Tuesday

With the 28-year-old forward sidelined, Isaac Okoro should remain in the starting five while Georges Niang and Sam Merrill will likely continue to see increased minutes off the bench. Wade's next chance to play will come Thursday against the Nuggets.

  • Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Out again Wednesday

    Wade (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Pelicans.

    Wade will miss both halves of Cleveland's current back-to-back set after spraining his left ankle during Sunday's win over the Hornets.
