Osman closed with nine points (2-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), one rebound and two assists over 20 minutes during Thursday's 106-103 loss to the Pistons.
EDGE Analysis

That was not the case Thursday, however, as Brandon Goodwin outplayed Osman in every facet. He'll look to bounce back Saturday against the Wizards.

Osman provided 22 points (8-16 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, five assists and one steal across 31 minutes during Sunday's 98-85 win over Indiana.
EDGE Analysis
Osman boomed for 18 points in the final frame -- instrumental in a 22-3 run to secure the game for Cleveland. He also recorded five assists without logging a turnover. The addition of Caris LeVert will eat into Osman's role, but he'll likely remain a key component of the Cavaliers' second unit.

Osman logged seven points (3-16 FG, 0-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds and 12 assists across 38 minutes during Monday's 93-90 win over the Pelicans.
EDGE Analysis
Osman was an abomination offensively, shooting 18.8 percent from the field, while logging his worst three-point shooting performance of the season. That being said, Osman was a maestro orchestrating the offense. With Darius Garland (back) out, Osman logged a career-high 12 assists and only recorded one turnover. This level of facilitating is unsustainable, but it's a glimpse into how the Cleveland offense could run if Garland misses more time.

Osman recorded 23 points (8-17 FG, 6-14 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, four assists and two steals across 34 minutes during Wednesday's 115-99 win over the Bucks.
EDGE Analysis
Osman led an impressive three-point barrage for the Cavaliers, who shot 19-for-42 (45.2 percent) from deep as a team Wednesday. Osman had been mired in a 3-for-32 slump from beyond the arc over his previous seven games, but broke out in a big way Wednesday. He'll look to remain hot Sunday against the Pistons. During the absence of Lauri Markkanen (ankle), Osman can sporadically merit fantasy attention.

Osman chipped in 10 points (3-7 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-5 FT), one rebound and one assist in 19 minutes during Saturday's 94-87 victory over the Thunder.
EDGE Analysis
Although Osman didn't log mich shot volume in the win, his performance was still the fourth-highest scoring total of the night. Various injury designations have caused home to miss 12 games this season, and although he has potential for fantasy-worthy production, he's been unable to generate much consistency with his stat lines. Like most second-unit players, he's one injury or COVID-19 case away from increased output.

Osman chipped in 14 points (5-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-5 FT), two rebounds, two assists and one steal in 24 minutes during Friday's 114-109 victory over the Spurs.
EDGE Analysis
Osman's minutes took a slight hit Friday, which is puzzling because he came right out of the gate with three 30-minute games after emerging from the league's health and safety protocols. Although his numbers have varied widely this season, a good night from beyond the arc can provide tremendous upside. Osman has only three converted threes in his past 15 attempts, making his greatest asset his Achilles heel at the moment.
