Porter chipped in two points (1-5 FG, 0-2 FT), 11 assists and three rebounds in 22 minutes during Friday's 117-115 win over Philadelphia.
EDGE Analysis
Porter moved into the starting lineup with Darius Garland (toe) sidelined and struggled to score, but he made a clear impact as a facilitator in Cleveland's narrow win. The 25-year-old matched a career high with 11 dimes, marking his first double-digit assist performance of the campaign. When given extended run, the Wichita State product often showcases his passing ability, averaging 5.6 assists in 14 games with at least 22 minutes played this season.

Porter is in the starting lineup for Thursday's matchup with Minnesota.
EDGE Analysis
Porter will be joined in the first unit by Darius Garland, Donovan Mitchell, Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen. This will be Porter's first start this season, but he's capable of racking up the defensive stats when given the minutes, so he's on the radar as a streaming target with just four games on Thursday's slate.

Porter closed with eight points (3-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds, nine assists, three blocks and two steals across 28 minutes during Tuesday's 120-116 win over the Pacers.
EDGE Analysis
With Donovan Mitchell (rest) taking the night off, Porter saw some increased opportunity and made the most of it, matching his season high in blocks, assists and rebounds. Whenever Mitchell or Darius Garland needs a night off, Porter will be someone to consider throwing out there in daily fantasy leagues.

Porter provided two points (1-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt), six rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals across 23 minutes during Sunday's 114-110 loss to the Pistons.
EDGE Analysis
Porter wasn't able to get much going offensively, but he had a solid showing on the defensive side of things. Over his last seven outings, Porter has averaged 4.6 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.6 three-pointers in 18.8 minutes per contest.

Porter ended Tuesday's 141-118 victory over the Pelicans with 12 points (4-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, eight assists, one block and two steals across 22 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
It was a well-rounded effort for Porter on Tuesday, with the third-year guard finishing with a season high in rebounds while dishing his most assists since Nov. 12 against the Heat (nine dimes). It was also his first game scoring in double-digits since Dec. 5 against the Spurs, and while his minutes have fluctuated this season, Porter should have a more reliable role in the rotation in games when Lonzo Ball (knee) is sidelined.
