Osman scored 22 points (7-12 FG, 4-7 3PT, 4-6 FT) to go with four rebounds and one steal across 26 minutes in Saturday's 128-119 win over Detroit.
EDGE Analysis
Osman notched 15 points on 5-for-7 shooting from the field in the first half as the Cavaliers grew their lead going into halftime. The forward has started off the new year hot from deep and can provide valuable shooting as Kevin Love works back to a full minutes load as the season continues.

Osman posted 19 points (7-8 FG, 5-6 3Pt), two rebounds, an assist and a steal across 22 minutes in Friday's 119-83 preseason loss at the Knicks.
EDGE Analysis
Osman missed the team's previous two preseason games due to an ankle injury, but he got the start and didn't disappoint, pacing the team in points and missing just one of his field-goal attempts. It remains to be seen just what role he will have once the regular season begins next week, but all signs point towards him being one of the top scoring threats in the Cavaliers' second unit.

Osman (ankle) is probable for Friday's preseason game against the Knicks, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 25-year-old sat out he past two preseason contests due to the ankle injury, but he's poised to take the court in the finale. Osman is a decent bet to join the starting lineup with Kevin Love (calf) and Larry Nance (jaw) sidelined.

Osman (ankle) is out for Wednesday's preseason action against the Knicks, Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Osman's ankle injury will keep him out for a second straight preseason game. Rookie Isaac Okoro should continue to be a focus of the gameplan with a myriad of other Cavaliers sidelined as well.

Osman (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's preseason game against the Pacers, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 25-year-old had 23 points (6-11 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 8-9 FT) while adding five rebounds, an assist and a steal in 22 minutes during Saturday's preseason opener but won't be available Monday due to the ankle issue. Osman was considered questionable before being downgraded, so he should have a chance to take the court for Wednesday's exhibition versus the Knicks.

Osman (ankle) is listed as questionable for Monday's preseason game against the Pacers.
EDGE Analysis
Osman led the way for the Cavs in Saturday's opener, finishing with a game-high 23 points and adding five rebounds in just 22 minutes. However, he emerged from the game with a sprained right ankle, and the team will wait to see how he feels Monday before ruling on his status.

Osman scored a game-high 23 points (6-11 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 8-9 FT) while adding five rebounds, an assist and a steal in 22 minutes during Saturday's 107-104 preseason win over the Pacers.
EDGE Analysis
With Collin Sexton (ankle) and Kevin Porter (undisclosed) sidelined, Osman got the start in the Cavs' preseason opener and delivered an impressive performance. Heading into his fourth NBA campaign, the 25-year-old forward figures to remain a complementary option in the offense, especially with fifth overall pick Isaac Okoro in the mix, but a big step forward for Osman in his development could force head coach J.B. Bickerstaff to find a more significant role for him.

Osman contributed 19 points (6-14 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six assists, four rebounds and two steals in 37 minutes Sunday in a 132-129 overtime win over the Spurs.
EDGE Analysis
Osman paid dividends for those who kept him in lineups for both halves of the Cavs' weekend back-to-back set, as he amassed 39 points, nine treys, seven assists and four steals between the two games while hitting exactly half of his shots from the field. His season-long 44.2 percent mark from the field probably means his recent offensive production probably can't be relied on, and Osman might end up losing out on both minutes and shot attempts once rookie Kevin Porter (concussion) is eventually cleared to play again.

Osman gathered 20 points (7-12 FG, 5-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, two steals and one assist in 38 minutes during Saturday's 104-102 victory over Denver.
EDGE Analysis
Osman compiled 20 points Saturday, a number he had failed to reach in each of his previous 21 games. This should tell you enough about his fantasy appeal, something that is limited to deeper formats at this point. With that being said, his playing time has been up over the past three games and should that continue, he may have limited streaming value across 12-team formats.

Osman recorded 13 points (3-14 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 4-4 Ft), five rebounds, two assists and one steal across 42 minutes in Wednesday's 112-106 loss to the Celtics.
EDGE Analysis
Osman started and logged a season-high 42 minutes in the loss with Andre Drummond (calf), Tristan Thompson (knee) and Darius Garland (groin) all out. Additionally, rookie Kevin Porter Jr. (head) was forced to leave this contest early. Osman had an ugly shooting night (21.4 percent), but it's hard to ignore this type of playing time. If three or more of these injured players are forced to miss Saturday's matchup with the Nuggets, Osman will be a solid daily-fantasy option based off sheer volume.
