Anthony Bennett missed all four of his field goal attempts vs. Golden State, scoring three points off free throws in 11 minutes off the bench. The overall No. 1 draft pick is now shooting 27.7 percent on the season. That's the seventh-worst mark among players averaging at least 10 minutes per game, ahead of only Alexey Shved, Steve Nash, Danny Granger, Phil Pressey, Marquis Teague and Stephen Jackson.

Anthony Bennett matched his career high with five boards, two assists and one block against the Celtics on Saturday, adding five points and one steal in 19 minutes. This would be a horrible game for most players, but it was Bennett's most well-rounded game of his career. Coach Mike Brown called a timeout to talk to the rookie and he still has quite a project on his hands. Andrew Bynum no longer in the picture doesn't have a big impact on Bennett's value just yet.

Anthony Bennett lost five pounds due to his recent illness. "[The illness] was hard with my asthma," said Bennett, who returned to action on Monday. "My asthma acts up 50 times worse. Getting up and down the court twice would have been terrible. I would have had a hard time breathing." The No. 1 pick came into the season listed at 259 pounds, but he's been trying to lose weight recently and this recent illness has him down to 240 pounds.

Anthony Bennett returned from an illness on Monday in a blowout loss to the Pistons, scoring seven points with two boards on 3-of-7 shooting. He is shooting 21.2 percent on his jumpers this year and continues to be one of the more disappointing stories of the year. Bennett is currently a liability on both ends of the court and has minimal fantasy value.

Anthony Bennett returned to action on Monday December 23.

Anthony Bennett (illness) is available to play on Monday against the Pistons. There really isn't much to get excited about here and the team might already be regretting their pick of Bennett with the top pick in the draft this past summer. He's shooting just 27.7 percent from the field on the year and has very little appeal in fantasy.

Anthony Bennett (illness) did not travel for Saturday's game in Chicago. He missed Friday's game with an illness and should be considered questionable for Monday's home game against the Pistons. Bennett has very little fantasy value.

Anthony Bennett (illness) will not play on Friday vs. the Bucks. He has trouble with conditioning while he's healthy, so it's not a surprise the Cavs will keep him out of the lineup tonight. Bennett has really struggled in his rookie season and the Cavs will be hoping he's a late bloomer.

Anthony Bennett (illness) will be a game-time decision for Friday's game against the Bucks. Bennett and Kyrie Irving are both game-time decisions due to illness Friday night, so there must be something going around the Cavs' facilities. The No. 1 pick of the 2013 draft has only played 7.3 minutes per game in the month of December and is averaging a measly 2.1 points during that span. Whether he plays on Friday or not is rather inconsequential for fantasy owners as he shouldn't be on rosters in anything by the deepest of leagues at the moment.

Anthony Bennett tied his season-high with 20 minutes played on Friday, and coach Mike Brown even considered starting him at SF before the game. The fact that Bennett played minutes at SF during the game was itself a surprise. "He hadn't had a lot of reps at [SF] at all, so for us it was an experiment," Brown said. "We may continue to experiment with him there at times. Obviously, it's going to be a work in progress." Bennett has been atrocious and he's shooting 22.4 percent from the field, but that won't stop the Cavs from developing him as the season progresses.
