Dean Wade Won't Suit Up Friday
8 months agoCleveland Cavaliers forward Dean Wade (knee) is set to miss his seventh game in a row due to a knee sprain on Friday. The backup big man hasn't been able to play since their game against the Minnesota Timberwolves on March 8. His absence is felt a bit more than usual since Evan Mobley (ankle) has also been out for the last eight games. While Wade hasn't been the most fantasy-friendly player, he was useful in some streaming scenarios before. Now that he's out, Jarrett Allen and Georges Niang will continue to be the starting big-man duo while Marcus Morris and Tristan Thompson will see some added minutes off of the bench.
