Okoro (toe) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Nuggets.
EDGE Analysis
Okoro has been downgraded from questionable to out and will miss his first game since Nov. 22. His next chance to suit up will come Tuesday in Utah. In Okoro's absence, Georges Niang, Sam Merrill and Marcus Morris are candidates for a few extra minutes against the reigning champs.

Okoro is questionable to face the Nuggets on Sunday due to right toe soreness.
EDGE Analysis
Okoro scored two points across 15 minutes off the bench in Friday's win over the 76ers, but it remains to be seen if he'll be available for Sunday's contest against the reigning NBA champions due to a toe injury. Okoro is averaging 9.9 points and 2.9 rebounds per game in March, but if he's out Sunday, his absence won't affect many fantasy decisions.

Okoro isn't starting Friday's game against the 76ers.
EDGE Analysis
Okoro drew starts in his last 15 appearances, averaging 10.5 points and 3.1 rebounds in 32.3 minutes per game during that time. However, he'll come off the bench Friday since Donovan Mitchell (nose) has been cleared to return.

Okoro finished with nine points (4-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and one steal across 33 minutes during Monday's 108-103 victory over the Pacers.
EDGE Analysis
Okoro has been logging significant minutes for the shorthanded Cavaliers, and his production has been solid for the most part. Through 10 March appearances, Okoro has averaged 12.1 points, 3.7 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1.2 steals, 0.9 blocks and 1.9 three-pointers.

Okoro closed Monday's 117-111 loss to the Suns with 13 points (4-12 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, three assists and four steals across 39 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Okoro's shot diet almost entirely consists of threes and attempts around the basket, so Monday's poor efficiency is disappointing. That being said, across 15 games with double-digit shot attempts this season, Okoro has shot under 45.0 percent on just five occasions, so his efficiency doesn't normally suffer when exceeding his typical 7.1 shots per game. He continues clamping as a defender, allowing opponents to shoot just 43.1 percent from the field, which ranks in the 91st percentile league-wide among qualifiers.

Okoro finished Tuesday's 105-104 victory over the Celtics with 16 points (5-11 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-4 FT), four rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal in 31 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Starting his third straight game in place of Max Strus (knee), Okoro once again scored in double digits while tying his season high in made three-pointers. The fourth-year forward has been a solid contributor for Cleveland since the All-Star break, and over the last eight contests, he's averaging 12.8 points, 2.9 assists, 2.5 boards, 2.3 threes, 1.0 steals and 0.9 blocks while shooting 52.1 percent from the floor and 43.9 percent from beyond the arc.

Okoro (elbow) is available for Tuesday's game versus the Celtics, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Okoro has been upgraded from questionable to available Tuesday despite dealing with a sprained left elbow. With Max Strus (knee) and Donovan Mitchell (knee) out, Okoro will receive his third straight start against Boston.

Okoro is being listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Celtics due to a sprained left elbow.
EDGE Analysis
Okoro must have tweaked his elbow while logging 34 minutes during Sunday's game, but we'll have a better idea on his status following Tuesday's shootaround. If he is forced to the sidelines, that could open up minutes for guys like Sam Merrill and Georges Niang.

Okoro closed Sunday's 107-98 loss to New York with 17 points (7-13 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 0-1 FT), five rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals across 34 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Okoro started for the fourth time in Cleveland's last seven games, and he has scored in double digits in each of those appearances. Even though Okoro profiles best as an offensive weapon off the bench, the injuries affecting the Cavaliers -- and particularly Donovan Mitchell (knee) -- have forced Okoro into a more prominent role. He's responded well to the call and might remain a starter against the Celtics on Tuesday if Mitchell is unable to return.
