Cavaliers head coach Kenny Atkinson said after Thursday's 110-97 win over the Nets that Wade (knee) will play in Friday's game against the Knicks, Danny Cunningham of Sports Radio 92.3 The Fan Cleveland reports.
Wade has missed 11 straight games while dealing with a bone bruise in his right knee, but he'll re-enter Cleveland's rotation Friday. Atkinson didn't say whether Wade will be under a minutes restriction against New York, but fantasy managers' expectations should be tempered right off the bat. The 28-year-old has started in 26 of his 35 appearances for the Cavaliers this season, averaging 6.0 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 0.9 steals in 22.8 minutes.
