Osman totaled 16 points (5-14 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one steal in a 134-118 loss to the Suns on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
With Darius Garland (ankle) out of the lineup, Osman got his second consecutive start and delivered another solid offensive performance. The forward shot the ball very efficiently from behind the arc, which led to his fifth double-digit scoring total in his last six games. Over that span, Osman has averaged 14.8 points, 4.8 assists and 4.2 rebounds per game.

Osman had 15 points (6-13 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), 11 assists, seven rebounds and a steal across 38 minutes in Saturday's loss against the Heat.
EDGE Analysis
Osman got the start in place of Darius Garland (ankle), who had been one of the Cavaliers' most consistent performers over the last few weeks, but Osman responded with a season-high mark in assists -- he ended just three boards shy of putting up a triple-double. Osman has started four of the Cavaliers' last five games and has scored in double digits four times during that span.

Osman will come off the bench Friday against the Wizards.
EDGE Analysis
With Collin Sexton (concussion) returning to the starting five, Osman will be sent to the bench. He saw DNP-CDs before Sexton suffered the concussion, so it's not clear if Osman will even play Friday.

Osman scored 19 points (6-13 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 6-6 FT) to go along with four rebounds and three assists across 32 minutes in Wednesday's loss to the Magic.
EDGE Analysis
Osman has returned to the rotation and starting lineup across the last three games with Collin Sexton (concussion) absent, topping 30 minutes on each occasion. He's scored exactly 19 points in two of those contests, this time on the strength of a perfect effort from the free-throw line. Though his peripheral stats were missing on Wednesday, Osman has averaged 4.0 assists, 3.7 rebounds and 1.3 steals per game in his recent to the rotation.

Osman finished Monday's loss to Toronto with just six points (2-9 FG, 2-7 3Pt) to go with five rebounds, four assists, three steals and a block in 38 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Making his second straight start with Collin Sexton (concussion) out, Osman played a game-high 38 minutes but was unable to capitalize on the increased opportunity. His four assists and defensive numbers helped salvage a passable fantasy line, but it was still a letdown for DFS players who took a flyer on the 26-year-old.

Osman will start Monday's game against the Raptors, Chris Fedor of Cleveland.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
With Collin Sexton (concussion) set to miss another game, the Cavs will stick with the same lineup from Sunday's 119-110 loss to Washington. Coming off of five straight DNP-CDs, Osman played 37 minutes and went for 19 points, five assists, two rebounds, a steal and three three-pointers. It's no guarantee that he'll see such a heavy workload again, but Osman makes for an appealing, low-cost flyer in DFS contests.

Osman started at small forward and recorded 19 points (7-12 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five assists, two rebounds and one steal across 37 minutes Sunday in the Cavaliers' 119-110 loss to the Wizards.
EDGE Analysis
Osman had been out of the rotation for each of the last five games, but he was thrust into the starting five with Collin Sexton (concussion) sidelined to close out the weekend. The 26-year-old essentially filled all of Sexton's minutes and turned in a quality line, but he'll be at risk of dropping back into a much smaller role -- or falling back out of the rotation again -- as soon as Sexton is back. Sexton seems unlikely to clear the concussion protocol ahead of the second game of the back-to-back set Monday versus the Raptors, so Osman should have at least one more game of elevated minutes.

Osman is starting Sunday's game against the Wizards.
EDGE Analysis
Osman was a DNP-CD in each of the last five games, but he'll take the place of Collin Sexton (concussion) in the starting lineup Sunday. In his last three appearances, Osman has averaged 6.7 points, 2.7 assists and 2.3 rebounds in 16.0 minutes per game.

Osman is averaging 15.6 minutes, 5.6 points, 2.2 assists, 1.6 rebounds and 0.4 blocks during five games in April.
EDGE Analysis
In the last 10 games, Osman has played 20-plus minutes twice, but he's also recorded five DNPs. Osman has struggled without any consistent playing time, shooting an abysmal 11.1 percent from three in April. It doesn't help that Dean Wade has stepped up, averaging 31.2 minutes during the aforementioned time frame, seemingly taking command of the backup forward position with Kevin Love and Jarrett Allen now healthy.
