Allen is set to sit out his fourth straight game Friday, and it's not encouraging that he continues to get ruled out 24 hours in advance of tipoff. Thomas Bryant and Jaylon Tyson will continue to pick up the slack in Allen's absence.
Strus is ramping up for his season debut, logging multiple practice sessions with the G League's Cleveland Charge, but he's not yet ready for game action due to offseason left foot surgery. His next chance to make his first appearance of the campaign arrives in Cleveland on Sunday, when the Cavaliers meet the Mavericks once again.
Merrill was a late addition to the injury report Friday due to left hamstring tightness and will miss his first game since Jan. 26. With the sharpshooter sidelined, Jaylon Tyson, Keon Ellis and Craig Porter are candidates to see an uptick in minutes. Merrill's next chance to play will come Sunday against Dallas.
Proctor is set to sit out his fourth consecutive game, and it's not a great sign that he continues to get ruled out a full day in advance of tipoff. That said, Proctor has been a negligible part of the Cavs' rotation this season, so his playing status won't impact fantasy leagues.
