Donovan Mitchell Ruled Out Wednesday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (groin) is unavailable for Wednesday's clash with the Milwaukee Bucks. Mitchell is dealing with a strained right groin and will sit out the second half of a back-to-back after finishing with 23 points, four assists, five rebounds and three steals across 31 minutes in Tuesday's 109-94 win over the Knicks. Cleveland's backcourt could also be without James Harden (thumb), who is listed as questionable. If Harden is unable to suit up, Dennis Schroder, Sam Merrill, and Jaylon Tyson would likely take on expanded roles during Wednesday's contest.

Evan Mobley Sidelined for Wednesday's Matchup With Milwaukee
Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Evan Mobley (calf) will not play in Wednesday's matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks. The contest is the second leg of a back-to-back, and the Cavaliers are opting to rest Mobley as he continues his recovery from a left calf strain that previously sidelined him for seven games. Cleveland appears to be taking a cautious approach to avoid any setback. In his absence, Dean Wade and Nae'Qwan Tomlin should see increased minutes, making them potential short-term streaming options in deeper fantasy formats.

James Harden Plans to Play Through Fractured Right Thumb Wednesday
According to Shams Charania of ESPN, Cleveland Cavaliers guard James Harden (thumb) plans to play through a fractured right thumb. However, he remains listed as questionable for Wednesday's matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks. The 36-year-old sustained a non-displaced fracture on his non-shooting hand during Tuesday's 109-94 win over the Knicks. A visit to a hand specialist confirmed that surgery will not be required. If Harden is ultimately ruled out for tonight's contest, fantasy managers can view this as a short-term absence rather than a lingering concern, as he is not expected to miss extended time.

Ty Jerome Available Wednesday
Memphis Grizzlies guard Ty Jerome (illness) is poised to return to the lineup on Wednesday against the Golden State Warriors. The team has not included him on the injury report. Jerome was unavailable for Monday's matchup with Sacramento due to illness. Since making his season debut in late January, Jerome has averaged 19.3 points, 2.7 rebounds, 5.7 assists, and 1.3 steals in just 20.6 minutes per game. His efforts include a 19-point, seven-assist effort against the Warriors, who have the seventh-worst defensive record in the league against point guards.
