Cavaliers' Jaylon Tyson: Double-double from second unit
Jaylon Tyson closed Sunday's 119-111 overtime loss to the Hornets with 16 points (6-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 13 rebounds, one assist and one steal across 35 minutes off the bench.The second-year forward moved back to the second unit for the first time since Nov. 28, but Tyson still saw a starter's workload and delivered his third double-double of the season, all three of which have come in December. Through six games this month, the 20th overall pick in the 2024 Draft is averaging 17.5 points, 9.0 boards, 2.5 assists and 1.8 threes, and Tyson's role isn't going to shrink as long as Evan Mobley (calf) remains sidelined.

Cavaliers' Jaylon Tyson: Goes for 24 points in win
Jaylon Tyson amassed 24 points (11-15 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 0-1 FT), six rebounds, two assists and two blocks in 33 minutes during Friday's 130-117 victory over the Spurs.Tyson continues to play out of his skin, scoring at least 24 points for the second time in the past three games.

In seven games over the past two weeks, Tyson has been a top-60 player, averaging 16.1 points, 6.3 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 2.3 three-pointers.

Cavaliers' Jaylon Tyson: Efficient double-double Monday
Jaylon Tyson tallied 27 points (10-13 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 11 rebounds, four assists and one steal over 31 minutes during the Cleveland Cavaliers' 135-119 win over the Pacers on Monday.Tyson was the leading rebounder during Monday's game and finished as the Cavaliers' second-leading scorer, as he served as the perfect complement to Donovan Mitchell (43 points). Tyson's performance also marked his first double-double of his young career, and he could remain in Cleveland's starting lineup Wednesday against the Trail Blazers if one or both of Jarrett Allen (finger) and Darius Garland (rest) are not cleared to play. As a starter, Tyson is averaging 14.6 points, 5.5 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 2.8 threes, 1.2 steals and 0.9 blocks over 27.9 minutes per game.

Cavaliers' Jaylon Tyson: Sniffs double-double in loss
Jaylon Tyson provided 15 points (6-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), nine rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal over 34 minutes during Monday's 110-99 loss to the Raptors.Tyson recorded his third straight start since his five-game absence due to a concussion and got right back on track, stuffing the stat sheet and shooting efficiently from the field. He also recorded a season high in minutes, but this was likely due to the absences of De'Andre Hunter (rest), Sam Merrill (hand), Dean Wade (knee) and Jarrett Allen (finger). Once Cleveland gets healthier, Tyson will likely revert to the bench, but his strong performances have made a case for him to remain a key part of the rotation.

Cavaliers' Jaylon Tyson: Excels in return from concussion
Jaylon Tyson (concussion) tallied 14 points (6-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt), eight rebounds and three assists across 27 minutes Friday in the Cleveland Cavaliers' 120-109 win over the Pacers.After making a recovery from a concussion that had kept him out of each of Cleveland's past five games, Tyson cracked the starting five for the eighth time in 12 appearances on the season and came through with an efficient, all-around line to satisfy those who activated him or streamed him into fantasy lineups. Tyson is the most likely candidate to move to the bench if center Jarrett Allen (finger) is able to play Sunday against the Clippers after sitting out Friday, but the second-year wing should still be in line for a meaningful role on the second unit when Cleveland is at full strength. After seeing scarce playing time as a rookie, Tyson has shown excellent growth in Year 2 with averages of 11.3 points (on 51.5 percent shooting from the field), 4.3 rebounds, 2.2 three-pointers, 1.9 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.8 blocks in 25.9 minutes per contest.
