Reaches double figures in start Okoro tallied 17 points (7-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds and one assist over 30 minutes in Thursday's 116-109 loss to Orlando.

Impact Okoro got the start with Donovan Mitchell (illness) out, connecting on a team-high-tying mark from the field while ending as one of four Cavaliers players with 15 or more points along with a pair of threes and rebounds. Okoro has scored at least 15 points in eight games this season, his seventh such performance as a starter. Okoro has provided a nice lift offensively as of late, reaching double figures in scoring in three of his last four outings.

Starting against Orlando Okoro is in the starting lineup to face the Magic on Thursday, Serena Winters of Bally Sports Cleveland reports.

Impact Okoro will move to the starting lineup with Donovan Mitchell (illness) out, and he will play in his regular small forward role, allowing Max Strus and Darius Garland to start in the backcourt. Okoro is averaging 10.8 points, 3.7 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game across 24 starts this season.

Reaches double figures off bench Okoro supplied 12 points (4-10 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, four assists and one steal in 27 minutes during Saturday's 119-95 victory over Toronto.

Impact Okoro ended as one of three Cavaliers bench players in double figures in scoring and as one of seven players on the team with 10 or more points to go along with a quartet of assists in a bench-leading minute total. Okoro has crossed the double-digit scoring mark in 18 games this season, including in two of his last four outings. He has handed out four or more assists in seven appearances, his first since recording a season-high seven dimes Jan. 17 against Milwaukee.

Returns to bench Okoro isn't in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Pistons.

Impact Darius Garland will replace Okoro in the starting five Wednesday after missing the last 19 contests with a jaw injury. Okoro is averaging 4.5 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 20.5 minutes across his last 10 appearances.

Pops for 17 in Monday's win Okoro posted 17 points (5-10 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound, three assists and one steal across 33 minutes during Monday's 118-108 victory over the Clippers.

Impact Highlighting his volatility, all 17 points came in the first half. It was Okoro's best scoring performance in January, and he's started 19 straight games while Darius Garland (jaw) has been sidelined, averaging 10.9 points, 3.2 boards, 2.4 assists and 1.2 threes during that stretch while shooting 50.0 percent from the floor. Garland is targeting Wednesday for his return however, which would bump Okoro back to the bench and put a big dent in his already marginal fantasy utility.

Pops for 12 points in win Okoro finished with 12 points (5-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-3 FT), five rebounds, two assists and two steals over 33 minutes during Saturday's 116-95 victory over the Hawks.

Impact Okoro scored double-digits for the third time in the past four games, helping the Cavaliers to a comfortable victory. Despite the slight uptick in scoring recently, Okoro is still struggling to remain relevant when it comes to fantasy. Well outside the top 20 for the season, he should only be considered in deeper formats.

Reaches double figures in start Okoro amassed 12 points (4-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and four rebounds in 35 minutes during Thursday's 111-102 win over Brooklyn.

Impact Okoro cracked the double-digit scoring mark after failing to do so the previous three games, ending as one of five Cavaliers in double figures in a winning effort. Okoro has scored 10 or more points in 11 games, adding at least four rebounds in six of those contests.

Efficient showing from floor Okoro notched 16 points (7-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 0-1 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one steal over 32 minutes during Thursday's 123-104 loss to New Orleans.

Impact Okoro served as a starter for a fourth consecutive game Thursday as Darius Garland (jaw) remained out. Okoro has been productive in his new role, scoring in double figures in three of his last four appearances. He had double-digit field-goal attempts for the third time this season Thursday, and it wouldn't be surprising to see his starting role continue in Garland's multi-week absence. Over his last four outings, Okoro has averaged 12.5 points, 4.8 rebounds and 4.5 assists in 30.3 minutes per game.

DECEMBER 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Productive in win Okoro provided 11 points (4-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), seven rebounds, six assists and one block over 32 minutes during Monday's 135-130 overtime victory over the Rockets.

Impact Okoro continues to turn heads for the Cavaliers in the absence of Darius Garland (jaw) and Evan Mobley (knee). It seems likely that he's going to play heavy minutes for the foreseeable future, and he appears up to the task. In his last two appearances, Okoro averaged 14.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 2.0 three-pointers in 32.0 minutes.

DECEMBER 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Matches season-high 18 points Okoro contributed 18 points (6-9 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, three assists and one steal over 32 minutes during Saturday's 127-119 victory over Atlanta.

Impact Okoro's 12.1 usage rate ranks in the bottom-15 percent of all wings, which makes his production entirely dependent on shotmaking. His shot diet is entirely based on getting to the rim or spotting-up from beyond the arc, but those are high-efficiency shots and Okoro's minute share could be enticing. Saturday's win marked Okoro's first start since Nov. 1, but he has streaming upside.

DECEMBER 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Starting against Atlanta Okoro is in the starting lineup to face Atlanta on Saturday.

Impact Okoro will move to the starting lineup with Darius Garland (jaw) out, meaning Donovan Mitchell and Max Strus will play in the backcourt, and Okoro will slot as small forward. Okoro is averaging 10.4 points, 5.6 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game across five starts this season.

DECEMBER 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Used sparingly in loss Okoro recorded three points (1-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one steal over 16 minutes during Tuesday's 120-113 loss to the Celtics.

Impact Okoro managed just 16 minutes in the loss, continuing his poor start to the season. As usual, he struggles to put up numbers even when he is playing meaningful minutes. In 24.0 minutes per night, he is averaging 6.3 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.0 steals. He is by no means a viable asset, even in deeper fantasy formats.

DECEMBER 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Records four steals Okoro closed with nine points (4-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt), six rebounds, four assists and four steals in 33 minutes during Saturday's 110-101 victory over the Pistons.

Impact Okoro matched his career high for steals (4), something he's accomplished three times. His energy Saturday was contagious, and it resulted in him playing 33 minutes off the bench. In his previous three games, Okoro was trending down with an average of 14.3 minutes per contest.

Cleared to play Okoro (knee) is available for Saturday's game against the Lakers.

Impact Okoro is ready to return to action after missing the past nine games for the Cavaliers. Presumably, the Cavaliers will ease him back into the rotation with Max Strus and Craig Porter playing so well.

NOVEMBER 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Deemed questionable Okoro (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Lakers.

Impact Okoro has missed nine straight games due to left knee soreness, but he returned to practice Friday and may suit up Saturday. However, if Okoro is cleared, he'll presumably handle a light bench role at first.

NOVEMBER 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to practice Coach J.B. Bickerstaff said Okoro (knee) practiced Friday, Evan Dammarell of FearTheSword.com reports.

Impact Okoro will presumably be listed as questionable on the Cavaliers' initial injury report for Saturday's game against the Lakers, which should drop sometime Friday afternoon. However, his availability will likely come down to a game-time decision, which is also the case with Donovan Mitchell (hamstring). If both players suit up, Cleveland will be close to full strength for the first time since the start of the season.

NOVEMBER 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Out again Wednesday Okoro (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Miami.

Impact Okoro will miss a ninth straight game due to a right knee injury. It's unclear when he'll be cleared to suit up again, but his next chance will arrive Saturday against the Lakers.
