Out for regular-season finale LeVert (knee) will be sidelined for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Hornets.

Impact LeVert will rest up for the Cavaliers' first-round playoff series against the Knicks, joining Darius Garland (lower leg), Donovan Mitchell (hand), Isaac Okoro (knee) and Dylan Windler (foot) on the sidelines, while Jarrett Allen (groin) is questionable. LeVert finishes his first complete season with Cleveland averaging 12.1 points, 3.9 assists, 3.8 rebounds and 1.0 steals across 30.3 minutes. He heads into the postseason with nine prior playoff appearances under his belt.

Logs 31 minutes off bench LeVert amassed 10 points (4-8 FG, 2-5 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and one steal in 31 minutes during Sunday's 108-91 victory over Houston.

Impact LeVert continues to play meaningful minutes off the bench, topping 30 for the third time in his past five games. He has scored double-digits in all five games, totaling 17 assists and 11 steals. As long as he is playing as the sixth man, he is worth a look for streaming purposes, assuming field goal efficiency is not a priority.

Stays hot with solid showing LeVert recorded 15 points (6-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, three assists, one block and four steals across 26 minutes during Friday's 117-94 victory over the Wizards.

Impact LeVert has been on quite the run for the Cavaliers. Over the past five games, LeVert leads all Cavaliers in nine-category fantasy value with 18.4 points, 3.2 rebounds, 4.8 assists, 2.4 steals and 3.2 three-pointers. The bad news is that LeVert doesn't play again until March 21 against the Nets, giving him three full days off.

Big night off bench LeVert finished with 24 points (8-14 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six assists, three rebounds and one steal over 36 minutes during Wednesday's 118-109 loss to the 76ers.

Impact After making the start in place of Donovan Mitchell (finger) in Tuesday's win over Charlotte, LeVert was back on the bench Wednesday with Mitchell returning to action. Even with both Mitchell and Darius Garland available for the Cavaliers, LeVert ended up being the surprise star of the night, as he surpassed both starting guards in the scoring column and ended up playing just two seconds fewer than Garland. LeVert has hit his stride of late with averages of 19.3 points, 5.3 assists, 3.8 three-pointers, 3.0 rebounds and 2.0 steals over the past four games, but that level of production doesn't look especially sustainable. He's averaging a more modest 0.9 steals per game for the season, and he's converted at a 51.9 percent rate from the field and 53.6 percent rate from three-point range over that four-game stretch, well above his season-long rates (41.9 percent, 37.7 percent).

Impact Donovan Mitchell will replace LeVert in the starting lineup Wednesday. LeVert is averaging 9.0 points, 3.5 rebounds and 3.2 assists in 26.8 minutes across his 37 games coming off the bench this season.

Pops for 22 in Tuesday's start LeVert produced 22 points (8-13 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four rebounds, seven assists, one block and four steals across 27 minutes during Tuesday's 120-104 win over the Hornets.

Impact The veteran wing got the start with Donovan Mitchell (finger) sidelined and responded by topping 20 points for the first time since Jan. 20. LeVert has scored in double digits in five of the last seven games, but his fantasy value remains somewhat limited when Cleveland's roster is at full strength.
