Strus (ankle) was a full go at Wednesday's practice, Spencer Davies of SI.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Strus appears to be on track to make his season debut Friday against the Bucks, but his official status won't be known until the Cavaliers release their injury report Thursday afternoon. Strus is someone who fantasy managers need to watch closely for those in need of a boost in three-pointers.

Strus (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Nets.

EDGE Analysis

Grant Afseth of RG.org reported that Strus was expected to make his season debut last Friday against the Wizards, but he was ultimately ruled out and will remain sidelined Monday.

Strus (ankle) won't play in Friday's game versus the Wizards.

EDGE Analysis

Strus (ankle) is expected to be cleared to make his season debut in Friday's game against the Wizards, Grant Afseth of RG.org reports.

EDGE Analysis

Strus has been sidelined since the preseason, when he was initially shut down with a hip contusion before suffering a right ankle sprain during the ramp-up process in October. The 28-year-old seems to have made noteworthy progress in his recovery of late, as he had recently been assigned to the G League's Cleveland Charge for practice work before rejoining the Cavaliers. He'll presumably get in some more on-court work over the next few days leading up to Friday's matchup, and if he's cleared to play as expected, Strus will likely be on a minute restriction. Strus started in all 70 of his appearances in 2024-25 and could eventually supplant Isaac Okoro (knee) on the top unit, but a regular 30-plus-minute role may be difficult to come by for Strus once he's free of restrictions. In addition to Okoro, the Cavaliers also have Georges Niang, Sam Merrill, Caris LeVert and Dean Wade on hand in a deep stable of forwards to challenge Strus for playing time.

The Cavaliers recalled Strus (ankle) from the G League's Cleveland Charge on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Strus was assigned to the G League on Friday and returned to the NBA club Saturday, but the Charge didn't have a game during that span, so the sharpshooter presumably got another practice in. It's unclear how much work Strus was able to do, but this was his second stint with the Charge this week, suggesting he's ramping up for a return to game action. When cleared to make his season debut, Strus will likely face heavy restrictions.

Strus (ankle) was assigned to the G League's Cleveland Charge on Friday.

Strus (ankle) was assigned to the G League's Cleveland Charge on Wednesday morning and recalled in the afternoon.

EDGE Analysis

The Charge didn't play a game on Wednesday, so Strus presumably joined the affiliate to practice, though it's unclear how much he could do. The sharpshooter has yet to play this season after spraining his right ankle during a workout ahead of training camp, and coach Kenny Atkinson said at the beginning of December that Strus didn't have a return timetable. Strus remains out indefinitely, but it's encouraging to see him at least taking gradual steps toward his debut.

Coach Kenny Atkinson said Sunday that Strus (ankle) still doesn't have a return timeline, Evan Dammarell of FearTheSword.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Strus has yet to play this season after spraining his right ankle during a workout ahead of training camp. Given Atkinson's vague timeline, it would be surprising if Strus made his season debut in December. Isaac Okoro continues to start at small forward in Strus' absence.

Strus (ankle) will be re-evaluated next week, Ethan Sands of Cleveland.com reported Wednesday.
