Darius Garland News, Rumors, Updates - Cleveland Cavaliers

Puts up team-high 26 points Garland accumulated 26 points (9-11 FG, 6-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one steal in 26 minutes during Saturday's 126-99 victory over the 76ers.

Impact Garland didn't have his most efficient performance in the win over the Bucks on Friday, recording 16 points while shooting 6-for-15 from the field, but he bounced back admirably here. The star floor general reached the 20-point mark for the third time across his last five outings -- and for the fifth time over nine December appearances. Garland has been performing well as the Cavs' third-best offensive option behind Donovan Mitchell and Evan Mobley, averaging 19.5 points and 5.3 assists per tilt since the beginning of December.

Efficient in win Garland dropped 11 points (4-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six assists, a steal and a block over 24 minutes in Monday's 130-101 victory over Brooklyn.

Impact While he attempted a season-low six field goal attempts and turned the ball over six times, Garland did not need to carry the load for Cleveland, as the Cavs handily put the Nets away in a team effort (seven players scored double-digits). Garland is averaging 20.3 points, 6.5 assists, 2.4 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 0.3 blocks across 30.2 minutes, so expect Garland to get back on track production-wise Friday against Milwaukee.

Team-high 24 points Friday Garland recorded 24 points (6-17 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 9-10 FT), five rebounds, eight assists and two steals across 33 minutes during Friday's 115-105 win over Washington.

Impact Garland led the Cavaliers with 24 points Friday while also handing out a game-high eight assists, also making up for an inefficient night from the floor by converting nine of his 10 free-throw attempts. The 25-year-old star guard has been rock-solid as Cleveland's floor general all year long, and he's averaging 20.8 points, 5.7 assists, 2.8 rebounds, 0.7 steals and 2.9 three-pointers per game through his last nine outings. Garland may not offer fantasy managers very much in the defensive categories, but he's shooting a career-high 41.6 percent from deep and averaging a career-low 2.3 turnovers per game on the season as a whole.

Paces team with 23 points Garland registered 23 points (9-19 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds and five assists over 32 minutes during Sunday's 122-113 loss to Miami.

Impact Garland tried to pick up the slack left behind by Donovan Mitchell's 12 points for the Cavaliers on Sunday, leading the team with 23 points, but it wasn't enough as Cleveland fell to the Heat. Over his last eight games, Garland is averaging 20.4 points, 5.4 assists and 2.9 three-pointers in 30.5 minutes per contest while shooting 41.1 percent from downtown. The star guard has a soft matchup on tap for Friday at home against the Wizards, who rank last in the league in points per game allowed (123.0).

Removed from injury report Garland (head) carries no injury designation into Thursday's game versus Denver.

Impact Garland exited Tuesday's victory over Washington after colliding with Jonas Valanciunas, but the incident will not prompt any further absence. The 24-year-old is averaging 23.3 points, 3.3 rebounds, 6.7 assists and just 1.0 turnovers across his last three healthy contests.

Headed to locker room Garland left Tuesday's game versus the Wizards with 8:08 remaining in the third quarter due to an apparent head injury, Evan Dammarell of DownEuclid.com reports.

Impact Garland was sent to the locker room after colliding with Jonas Valanciunas. If the star guard is unable to return, he will finish Tuesday's contest with 12 points (4-7 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three assists and one steal in 17 minutes.

Heating up from beyond the arc Garland racked up 22 points (5-12 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 8-8 FT), five rebounds and eight assists over 32 minutes during Sunday's 115-111 win over the Celtics.

Impact Garland's 22 points were overshadowed a bit by backcourt mate Donovan Mitchell's game-high 35 points on the strength of his second-half heroics in Sunday's narrow win over the defending-champion Celtics, but this display was a major improvement from his 3-for-21 showing from the floor in a loss to Boston on Nov. 19. The 24-year-old star guard has returned to form in his past four outings following that dreadful performance, however, averaging 21.5 points, 6.5 assists, 3.3 rebounds and 3.8 three-pointers in 32.2 minutes per game and shooting a hot 53.6 percent from deep during this period. Garland has a highly favorable matchup Tuesday with the 2-16 Wizards, a club with the worst defensive efficiency rating (117.6) in the NBA this season.

Team-high 29 points Friday Garland accumulated 29 points (11-19 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, five assists and one steal over 33 minutes during Friday's 117-101 loss to Atlanta.

Impact Garland and Evan Mobley (24) carried the scoring load for the Cavaliers on Friday in a game that saw leading scorer Donovan Mitchell score just 12 points on 5 of 23 shooting. It was the third time this season that Garland has connected on five threes or more, and over his last three outings he's gone 11-for-23 from beyond the arc.

Good to go Sunday Garland (groin) isn't on the injury report for Sunday's game versus the Raptors.

Impact Garland will return to action Sunday after missing Cleveland's previous contest due to a left groin strain. The 24-year-old guard should reclaim his starting spot from Ty Jerome. Garland is averaging 21.5 points, 7.8 assists, 2.7 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 32.0 minutes across his last 10 appearances.

Cleveland's Darius Garland, New Orleans' Brandon Ingram miss game with injuries

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland and New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram are among 14 players ruled out with injuries for the teams’ game

Listed out for Wednesday Garland will not play Wednesday against the Pelicans due to left groin soreness.

Impact Wednesday's game is the second leg of a back-to-back set against a very shorthanded New Orleans team, so the Cavaliers are likely exercising caution here. With Garland sidelined, Ty Jerome is likely to step into a larger role, and Craig Porter could be way more involved as well after a strong showing against the Celtics on Tuesday. Garland's next chance to play will be Sunday against Toronto.

Leads way with 25 points Garland registered 25 points (7-16 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 9-9 FT), five rebounds and 12 assists across 30 minutes during Sunday's 128-114 win over the Hornets.

Impact Garland took over as the team's primary scoring threat Sunday while Donovan Mitchell got the day off for rest purposes. He responded by leading his squad in points and assists, setting a new top mark on the year in the assist column. Garland is averaging 23.2 points, 3.2 rebounds, 7.6 assists and 1.2 steals over his last five appearances.
