Dean Wade - Remains out SundayWade (knee) will not play Sunday against the Heat, Danny Cunningham of 1500 ESPN Twin Cities reports.

ImpactWade's absence is to be expected considering he is currently dealing with an infection in his right knee. However, he has been put on antibiotics and should be approaching a return to action in the near future. With Kevin Love (thumb) likely to miss Sunday also, Cedi Osman and Lamar Stevens should be in line for extended run. Wade's next chance to play comes Monday against the Hawks.

Mark Williams - Questionable SundayWilliams (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Wizards.

ImpactWilliams is questionable to miss his third consecutive game due to a left ankle sprain. He's only totaled 12 minutes across three appearances and hasn't seen the floor for the Hornets since Oct. 28, so his potential absence shouldn't impact Charlotte's rotation.

LaMelo Ball - Remains out SundayBall (ankle) will not play in Sunday's affair with the Wizards.

ImpactBall will miss a second straight contest due to a left ankle sprain suffered Wednesday after stepping on a fan sitting courtside. With Dennis Smith (ankle) questionable, the Hornets' backcourt will rely on the likes Terry Rozier, Theo Maledon and James Bouknight on Sunday. Ball's next opportunity to take the floor will come Wednesday against Philadelphia.

Dennis Smith Jr. - Questionable SundaySmith (ankle) is questionable to play in Sunday's game against the Wizards.

ImpactSmith has missed four straight contests due to a sprained left ankle, and his availability for Sunday remains up in the air. Considering LaMelo Ball (ankle) has already been ruled out, if Smith is able to play, he will likely slot into the starting point guard spot. However, if he fails to suit up, more minutes would become available for James Bouknight and Theo Maledon.

Cavaliers Kevin Love has thumb fracture, could miss games

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love could miss some games after sustaining a hairline fracture to his right thumb in Friday’s double-overtime win against the Charlotte Hornets

NOVEMBER 19, 2022•ASSOCIATED PRESS

Kevin Love - Unlikely to play SundayLove is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Heat due to a hairline fracture in his right thumb.

ImpactLove suffered the injury in the third quarter of Friday's matchup with the Hornets and is considered to be day-to-day. His absence would likely create more opportunities for the likes of Robin Lopez, Lamar Stevens and Cedi Osman.

Caris LeVert - Silent in bench roleLeVert totaled four points (1-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and two assists across 30 minutes during Friday's 132-122 double-overtime victory over the Hornets.

ImpactLeVert had tallied double digits in all but three of his starts this season, but he couldn't find his stroke off the bench Friday despite logging a healthy 30 minutes. Lamar Stevens wasn't particularly efficient in his starting role Friday, so it could be a revolving door for the Cavaliers' fifth starting spot until something clicks with one of the lineups.
