Okoro is not starting Monday against the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
Okoro will move back to the second unit following the return of Lamar Stevens (knee), marking the end of four straight starts for the former Auburn standout. Fresh off a season-high 15-point effort Friday against the Raptors, it's worth noting Okoro is averaging just 4.0 points across 17.0 minutes per game when playing off the bench this season.

Okoro ended Friday's 118-107 loss to the Raptors with 15 points (4-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds, two assists and two blocks across 20 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Okoro started for the fourth straight game and scored seven points while making all three of his shots in the first quarter. He's scored in double figures three times in his last four contests and is averaging 11.8 points while making 51.3 percent of his shots in that span. He's seen an increased role for Cleveland of late but is still only averaging 18.9 minutes per game, well short of the 31.0 minutes he averaged over his first two seasons.

Okoro recorded 10 points (5-11 FG, 0-4 3Pt), six rebounds, two blocks and one steal in 26 minutes during Saturday's 100-99 overtime victory over the Mavericks.
EDGE Analysis
Okoro moved into the starting lineup Saturday but was unable to bring much to the table. He typically provides a nice defensive presence for the Cavaliers, something that held true here with three combined steals and blocks. This was just his fifth start of the season, indicating that he will likely move back to the bench once Lamar Stevens (knee) returns to action.

Okoro is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Mavericks, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Okoro will replace Lamar Stevens (knee) in the starting unit and join the other regular starters Donovan Mitchell, Darius Garland, Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen. Okoro has started just four games this season and is averaging 3.8 points, 3.0 rebounds and 0.8 steals across 25.5 minutes per game in that span.

Okoro supplied 11 points (5-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt), five rebounds, two assists and three steals in 22 minutes during Wednesday's 113-85 win over the 76ers.
EDGE Analysis
Okoro produced double-digit points for the third time all season. He's played at least 15 minutes in 11 straight contests and is averaging 6.6 points and 3.1 rebounds in 24.5 minutes during that span. While he's getting more playing time, he is still struggling from the field, and Wednesday was the first time since Nov. 16 that he made more than half his shot attempts.

Okoro will come off the bench Wednesday against the 76ers, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Coach J.B. Bickerstaff will opt to switch things up, giving Mamadi Diakite the start after an impressive stint in the G League. Okoro should still have an expanded role as the Cavaliers remain hit by injuries. Across his past 10 games, he's averaged 6.1 points and 2.9 rebounds in 24.8 minutes.

Okoro is starting Monday's game against the Raptors, Cayleigh Griffin of AT&T SportsNet Southwest reports.
EDGE Analysis
Okoro is set to make his first start since Nov. 4 against the Pistons, finishing with nine points, four rebounds and one steal in 23 minutes. He should see a sizeable workload with Jarrett Allen (back), Kevin Love (thumb) and Lamar Stevens (illness) all ruled out.

Okoro notched seven points (2-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and one steal in 30 minutes during Sunday's 102-94 win over the Pistons.
EDGE Analysis
Okoro played at least 30 minutes for the second straight game but as per usual, offered very little in terms of tangible production. He has an uncanny knack for doing very little despite playing significant minutes, something that certainly doesn't lend itself to fantasy upside. Outside of deeper formats, he can be safely ignored, at least until he can string together a few productive games.

Okoro registered 13 points (4-8 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-5 FT), four rebounds and two assists in 29 minutes during Sunday's 113-87 victory over the Heat.
EDGE Analysis
Okoro enjoyed a solid shooting night from the field, which included a new season high in made threes. This was a surprisingly productive scoring night for the Auburn product who had yet to score in double figures prior to Sunday's clash. It would be unwise of fantasy managers to expect this type of scoring output from Okoro on a consistent basis given on his current role within this Cleveland rotation.
