• Cavaliers' Darius Garland: Puts up team-high 26 points

  1D ago • By RotoWire

  Garland accumulated 26 points (9-11 FG, 6-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one steal in 26 minutes during Saturday's 126-99 victory over the 76ers. Garland didn't have his most efficient performance in the win over the Bucks on Friday, recording 16 points while shooting 6-for-15 from the field, but he bounced back admirably here. The star floor general reached the 20-point mark for the third time across his last five outings -- and for the fifth time over nine December appearances. Garland has been performing well as the Cavs' third-best offensive option behind Donovan Mitchell and Evan Mobley, averaging 19.5 points and 5.3 assists per tilt since the beginning of December.

• Cavaliers' Darius Garland: Efficient in win

  6D ago • By RotoWire

  Garland dropped 11 points (4-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six assists, a steal and a block over 24 minutes in Monday's 130-101 victory over Brooklyn. While he attempted a season-low six field-goal attempts and turned the ball over six times, Garland did not need to carry the load for Cleveland, as the Cavs handily put the Nets away in a team effort (seven players scored in double-digits). Garland is averaging 20.3 points, 6.5 assists, 2.4 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 0.3 blocks across 30.2 minutes, so expect Garland to get back on track production-wise Friday against Milwaukee.

  9D ago • By RotoWire

  Garland recorded 24 points (6-17 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 9-10 FT), five rebounds, eight assists and two steals across 33 minutes during Friday's 115-105 win over Washington. Garland led the Cavaliers with 24 points Friday while also handing out a game-high eight assists, also making up for an inefficient night from the floor by converting nine of his 10 free-throw attempts. The 25-year-old star guard has been rock-solid as Cleveland's floor general all year long, and he's averaging 20.8 points, 5.7 assists, 2.8 rebounds, 0.7 steals and 2.9 three-pointers per game through his last nine outings. Garland may not offer fantasy managers very much in the defensive categories, but he's shooting a career-high 41.6 percent from deep and averaging a career-low 2.3 turnovers per game on the season as a whole.

  14D ago • By RotoWire

  Garland registered 23 points (9-19 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds and five assists over 32 minutes during Sunday's 122-113 loss to Miami. Garland tried to pick up the slack left behind by Donovan Mitchell's 12 points for the Cavaliers on Sunday, leading the team with 23 points, but it wasn't enough as Cleveland fell to the Heat. Over his last eight games, Garland is averaging 20.4 points, 5.4 assists and 2.9 three-pointers in 30.5 minutes per contest while shooting 41.1 percent from downtown. The star guard has a soft matchup on tap for Friday at home against the Wizards, who rank last in the league in points per game allowed (123.0).
