Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Serviceable in spot start
Wade finished Wednesday's 123-119 loss to the Kings with 12 points (4-8 FG, 4-6 3Pt), seven rebounds and one assist over 23 minutes.
Wade started in place of the resting Darius Garland on Wednesday, matching the team high in three-pointers. The veteran forward has averaged 6.6 points, 4.9 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 0.5 steals and 1.7 three-pointers in 23.6 minutes over his last 12 games as a starter, although he will likely revert back to the bench with Garland likely to return in Friday's game against the Suns.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Starting sans Garland
Wade is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Kings.
Darius Garland is getting Wednesday night off for rest purposes, creating an opportunity for Wade in the first unit. Over his last 11 games as a starter, the veteran forward has averaged 6.1 points, 4.7 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 0.5 steals and 0.4 blocks in 23.7 minutes.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Ties season high with three steals
Wade logged three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt), six rebounds and three steals in 22 minutes during Sunday's 108-103 loss to the Magic.
Even with Evan Mobley (foot) sidelined, Wade's role didn't change. He was able to make a defensive impact by tying his season high with three steals, but Wade hasn't scored in double figures since Jan. 8.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Fails to score in win
Wade chipped in zero points (0-3 FG, 0-3 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist in 11 minutes during Friday's 118-117 win over the Hornets.
Wade was a non-factor, failing to score during his limited time on the court. Although he is able to see the floor on most nights, Wade's production typically leaves a lot to be desired. In seven games over the past two weeks, Wade averaged just 3.3 points and 3.4 rebounds in 16.9 minutes per contest.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Scores two points in return
Wade (knee) recorded two points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists across 15 minutes in Friday's 142-105 win over the Knicks.
Wade made his return after he had missed Cleveland's prior 11 games while recovering from a bone bruise in his right knee. Before getting hurt, Wade had started in 16 straight contests, but he'll likely have to settle for a reserve role moving forward with Max Strus having moved atop the depth chart at small forward. Playing off the bench could make it difficult for Wade to eclipse 20 minutes in most games, though he could have a chance to see more playing time Sunday against the Grizzlies if the finger sprain that forced Jarrett Allen out of Friday's game early causes him to miss a contest.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Cleared to return Friday
Wade (knee) is available for Friday's game against the Knicks, Tom Withers of the Associated Press reports.
Wade has missed the Cavaliers' last 11 games due to a bone bruise in his right knee, but the 28-year-old is set to make his return Friday. Head coach Kenny Atkinson said Friday that Wade will be eased back into the rotation, so expect his playing time to be below the 22.8 minutes per game he averaged prior to his injury. Wade is averaging 6.0 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 0.9 steals this season.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Will play Friday
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.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Likely to play Friday
Wade (knee) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Knicks.
Wade is expected to return from an 11-game absence Friday due to a bone bruise in his right knee. Head coach Kenny Atkinson said Thursday that the 28-year-old would play Friday, according to Danny Cunningham of the Locked On Cavs Podcast reports. However, it wouldn't come as a surprise if Wade operated under a minute restriction during his return.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Ruled out against Brooklyn
Wade (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Nets.
Wade will miss an 11th straight game for Cleveland as he continues to deal with a bone bruise in his right knee. The 28-year-old forward has played well this season for the Cavaliers when healthy, averaging career-high numbers in points (6.0), rebounds (5.1) and assists (1.6). Max Strus will likely continue to see more minutes due to Wade's absence.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Likely out through All-Star break
Wade was diagnosed with a bone bruise in his right knee following a recent scan and is facing a multi-week recovery timeline, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Fedor notes that Wade's injury is unrelated to his past knee problems, including the meniscus issue that sidelined him for the end of the 2023-24 regular season before he returned to action last May in the Eastern Conference Semifinal series loss to the Celtics. Even so, Wade will likely be sidelined through the All-Star break. His absence along with Isaac Okoro's (shoulder) -- who has missed the last six games and is facing an uncertain return timeline -- should pave the way for Max Strus to continue starting at small forward. Along with Strus, bench players Caris LeVert (wrist), Ty Jerome, Georges Niang and Ty Jerome could continue to benefit from more playing time while the Cavaliers are without Wade and Okoro.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Lacks timeline for return
Head coach Kenny Atkinson acknowledge that Wade -- who will miss a second straight game Monday against Detroit -- is without a timetable for return and can likely be considered "more than day-to-day" due to a right knee sprain, Sam Amico of HoopsWire.com reports.
The Cavaliers will likely provide further specifics on Wade's status before Wednesday's game against the Heat, though the 28-year-old forward can be considered doubtful at best for the club's upcoming back-to-back set, which wraps up Thursday versus the Hawks. If Wade remains on the shelf for an extended period, Max Strus will likely continue to start at small forward.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Won't play against Houston

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Exits Friday with knee injury
Wade was been ruled out for the rest of Friday's game against Philadelphia due to a right knee injury, Spencer Davies of SI.com reports.
Wade checked out at the 3:12 mark of the third quarter of Friday's game and will finish with two points (1-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt), four assists, two rebounds and one steal over 20 minutes. The severity of the knee issue isn't yet known, but Wade would seem to be at major risk of missing the second leg of the Cavaliers' back-to-back set Saturday versus the Rockets in Cleveland.

Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Solid night as starter
Wade put up eight points (3-8 FG, 2-7 3Pt), eight boards, three assists, two steals and a block in 31 minutes of action during Wednesday's 109-108 loss to the Rockets.
Wade has been pretty consistent in Evan Mobley's (calf) absence, scoring exactly eight points in the three contests since the latter went down and averaging 6.0 rebounds during that stretch. He delivered a nicely rounded performance Wednesday, contributing on the defensive side of the ball as well, but failed to score efficiently and overall didn't leave that big of a mark on the game considering his expanded role. Mobley is designated as day-to-day, so Wade will likely retain some fantasy value in deeper formats until the former makes his return.
