Out again Wednesday Rondo (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's contest against the 76ers.

Out Monday Rondo (ankle) will not play Monday against the Clippers.

Impact As expected, the veteran will miss at least one game after he tweaked his right ankle during Saturday's game against the Bulls. Rondo has officially been diagnosed with a sprain and should be considered day-to-day as the Cavs look ahead to Wednesday's matchup against the Sixers.

Doubtful for Monday's contest Rondo (ankle) is doubtful for Monday's contest against the Clippers.

Impact Rondo appeared to land awkwardly after being fouled by Ayo Dosunmu while attempting a three-pointer in the third quarter of Saturday's loss to the Bulls. The veteran point guard will likely miss at least one additional contest, so Brandon Goodwin figures to take over the backup point-guard duties behind Darius Garland.

Heads to locker room Saturday Rondo (ankle) went to the locker room with members of Cleveland's training staff in the third quarter of Saturday's game against Chicago, Kelsey Russo of The Athletic reports.

Impact Rondo was fouled by Ayo Dosunmu while attempting a three-pointer and appeared to land awkwardly. He stayed in the game to take the resulting free-throws but was unable to continue thereafter. Brandon Goodwin would take over backup point-guard duties if Rondo is unable to return.

Reclaims backup point guard role Rondo (toe) played 11 minutes and finished with zero points (0-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt), four assists, two rebounds and one block in Tuesday's 127-124 win over the Pacers.

Impact After getting the green light to play following a five-game absence with a sprained toe on his right foot, Rondo immediately stepped back in as the primary backup to starting point guard Darius Garland, resulting in Brandon Goodwin dropping out of the rotation. Though Garland's excellent shooting could make him a fit alongside Rondo in an off-ball role, Cavaliers head coach J.B. Bickerstaff doesn't seem inclined to pair the two together. If that remains the case, Rondo probably can't be counted on to handle anything more than a 10-to-15-minute role most nights so long as Garland is healthy.

Good to go Tuesday Rondo (toe) is available for Tuesday's game against Indiana, Serena Winters of Bally Sports Cleveland reports.

Impact Rondo missed the past five games with a sprained right toe but will return to the court Tuesday versus the Pacers. The veteran guard should split backup point duties with Brandon Goodwin behind starter Darius Garland.

MARCH 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable Tuesday Rondo (toe) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Pacers.

Impact Rondo has missed the last five games due to a right toe sprain, but he'll have a chance to return against Indiana. If he remains out, Brandon Goodwin and Cedi Osman should continue to see additional playing time.

Won't play Sunday Rondo (toe) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Raptors, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Impact Rondo was doubtful ahead of Sunday's matchup, so it's not very surprising that he'll be held out against Toronto. However, he's making progress in his recovery, and his next chance to return will be Tuesday against Indiana.

Doubtful Sunday Rondo (toe) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Raptors.

Impact Rondo took part in Friday's shootaround, but it appears likely that he'll be forced to miss a fifth consecutive game Sunday. Assuming he's sidelined, Brandon Goodwin and Cedi Osman should continue to see increased run.

Doubtful Friday Rondo (toe) is doubtful for Friday's game against the 76ers.

Impact The Cavaliers announced last week that Rondo would be sidelined for two weeks, but it's slightly encouraging that he's listed as doubtful Friday rather than immediately being ruled out. Assuming he remains sidelined against Philadelphia, Brandon Goodwin and Cedi Osman should continue to see additional work.
