Impact With Donovan Mitchell (rest) taking the second night of a back-to-back set off, LeVert made his first start of the season and scored his most points since Dec. 16.

Starting sans Mitchell LeVert will start in Thursday's matchup against Toronto, Serena Winters of FanDuel Sports Network Ohio reports.

Impact With Donovan Mitchell (rest) sidelined for the second leg of the club's back-to-back set, LeVert will get the starting nod for the first time this season. The 30-year-old has provided a fairly consistent spark off the bench for the Cavaliers thus far, and over his last five outings, he has averaged 7.8 points, 2.6 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.2 steals across 22.8 minutes per contest.

Productive off bench Friday LeVert provided 17 points (7-15 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 1-3 FT), four rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals over 25 minutes off the bench during Friday's 134-122 win over Dallas.

Impact The Cavs used a balanced attack to secure Friday's victory, as seven Cleveland players scored in double digits with LeVert leading the second unit. The veteran guard has had trouble finding consistent shot volume of late, but he's managed to drain at least one three-pointer in eight straight games, averaging 11.4 points, 2.5 assists, 2.3 threes, 2.0 boards and 1.3 steals in 21.9 minutes a contest over that stretch while shooting 45.0 percent (18-for-40) from beyond the arc.

Back-to-back poor performances LeVert contributed three points (1-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt), one rebound, two assists, one block and one steal in 23 minutes during Tuesday's 122-110 win over the Lakers.

Impact The Cavaliers might be red-hot right now, but the same can't be said for LeVert, who has struggled over the last two games. The veteran guard scored 12 points combined, shooting 4-for-13 from the field against the Warriors and Lakers.

Scores 11 points LeVert logged 11 points (3-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-5 FT), three rebounds and one assist in 24 minutes during Monday's 124-113 victory over the Jazz.

Impact With Max Strus healthy, LeVert won't have as much upside going forward. He's barely holding onto top-150 value in nine-category formats, so LeVert's fantasy managers in standard leagues may need to look at other options on the waiver wire.

LeVert set a new season high mark from three Thursday, posting his second game of the season with at least 20 points.

Muted production in return LeVert (knee) provided eight points (2-5 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two assists and one rebound in 20 minutes off the bench in Friday's 117-101 loss to the Hawks.

Impact LeVert typically assumes more offensive responsibility on the second unit, but he was more deferential in his return from a four-game absence due to a left knee injury. He took on a 14.4 percent usage rate Friday, well behind his season-long rate of 17.5 percent. LeVert could see his minutes and usage pick up slightly as he becomes further removed from the injury, but his upside in both areas will be somewhat capped while the Cavaliers have most of their key rotational players available with the exception of Max Strus (ankle), who could be ready to make his season debut as soon as some point during the upcoming week.

Questionable for Friday LeVert (knee) is questionable for Friday's game against the Hawks.

Impact LeVert has a chance to return to game action following four straight absences due to left knee injury management. Over 13 appearances this season, LeVert has averaged 11.8 points, 4.5 assists, 2.9 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 24.4 minutes per game.

Impact LeVert will miss a fourth straight game due to left knee injury management.

LeVert's next chance to suit up will come Friday during a rematch against the Hawks in Atlanta.
