Jarrett Allen (hand) is questionable for Sunday's game against Memphis. The former Brooklyn Net exited Friday's blowout win over the New York Knicks because of a hand injury. Fortunately, X-rays were negative, although he was set for an MRI on Saturday. Hopefully, Allen won't miss extended time because of the injury. But if he ends up on the shelf,
Evan Mobley could handle things in the middle, with
De'Andre Hunter or
Dean Wade potentially getting the start at the four spot.

Jarrett Allen (hand) exited Friday's massive win over the Knicks. While X-rays were negative, head coach Kenny Atkinson indicated Allen will undergo an MRI on Saturday. Cleveland is currently the top team in the Eastern Conference, sitting on a 46-10 record. However, the Cavs could be without Allen for at least a few games, depending on how things play out. If that's the case,
Evan Mobley will likely slide over to the middle, with
De'Andre Hunter or
Dean Wade entering the starting lineup to handle things at the four spot.

Jarrett Allen (hand) has been ruled out for the rest of Friday's game against the New York Knicks. Allen suffered a right hand injury during the third quarter, but luckily the X-rays were negative. The Cavs are going to play it safe and hold out Allen for the rest of this contest. For now, fantasy managers should consider Allen as day-to-day.
Evan Mobley figures to see more time at the center spot, while
De'Andre Hunter and
Dean Wade could play more minutes during the final quarter or so of this game.

Jarrett Allen (leg) is dealing with a lower leg strain but is still considered probable to face off against the Chicago Bulls on Friday. Allen has appeared on the injury report for the last few games with the same strain, but it hasn't caused him to miss any time yet. In 13 starts, Allen has posted eight double-doubles and averaged 13.3 points, 10.7 rebounds, 1.7 assists, and 1.2 blocks per game. He and
Evan Mobley have been a big part of the Cavs' top-seven defense.
