Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen finished with 18 points and 16 rebounds during Wednesday's win over the Orlando Magic. The 24-year-old has had a double-double in three of his four games this season. Although Donovan Mitchell will take away some scoring opportunities moving ahead, Allen will remain a double-double threat and potent shot-blocker, making many fantasy managers happy.

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen was quiet during the preseason loss to Philly. The big man saw 16 minutes of action. However, he shot a rough 2-for-7 for the field to finish with only five points while adding two rebounds. Allen finished last season by averaging a career-high 16.1 points and 10.8 rebounds, along with 1.3 blocks. While the 24-year-old is always a double-double threat from year to year, he hasn't played more than 63 games in either of his previous two seasons, which should be concerning for fantasy managers. The arrival of Donovan Mitchell and the expected improvement of Evan Mobley could also negatively impact things on the scoring end.

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (finger) will play against the Atlanta Hawks on Friday. He will start, making his first appearance since breaking a finger on his left hand over a month ago. While this is positive news for Cavaliers' fans, DFS managers shouldn't get as excited, primarily since the finger was heavily wrapped during pre-game warmups, which could ultimately impact his play on both ends of the floor. There's also a chance Allen faces a minutes cap, which may hurt his fantasy stock even more.

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (finger) is expected to suit up for Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. Allen has been out for over a month, but will make his return to the court for their win or go home matchup. Fantasy managers should expect Allen to be in the starting five and to play a heavy role in the rotation. His return means Kevin Love and Moses Brown won't be as involved. Fantasy managers should expect Allen to be out there unless he suffers a setback pregame.

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (finger) will attempt to make his return to the court in Friday's play-in game against the Atlanta Hawks, according to Shams Charania. The All-Star center is currently listed as questionable for the game, but barring any setbacks, it seems as if he'll be on the court for tip-off. Allen has been out since March 6 due to a fractured finger. With his return, we will likely see Lauri Markkanen slip back into a bench role. Allen had a fantastic year before fracturing his finger. Over 56 games, he averaged 16.1 points and 10.8 rebounds per game.

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (finger) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. The big man is trending in the right direction, but won't suit up for Tuesday's play-in game. The organization is hopeful that Allen will be ready for their next contest. In the meantime, Moses Brown and Kevin Love should continue to split up the extra minutes. Both players have low-end appeal, but they aren't great fantasy options.

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (finger) might not be back on the court this season. He has been sidelined since early March without a timetable in sight. He continues to wear a brace on his finger, which leads many to believe he won't be back on the court anytime soon. There is only one week left in the regular season, but hopefully Allen will be back in time for the play-in tournament. Until then, Moses Brown and Kevin Love will be tasked with splitting up the playing time.

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (finger) won't play on Saturday against Chicago. The former Net hasn't played since March 6th after sustaining a fractured finger. However, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic, there's hope he will be back sometime within the next three weeks. The Cavs could certainly use Allen, primarily since the team hasn't been the same without him. Nevertheless, Evan Mobley will likely continue to handle things in the middle until Allen returns, with Kevin Love potentially remaining in the starting lineup for the foreseeable future.

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (finger) won't play against the Los Angeles Lakers. This is hardly a surprise, as the former Brooklyn Net continues to work his way back from a broken finger. Fortunately, there's a chance Allen may return before the end of the regular season. Yet, Evan Mobley will likely handle most of the work underneath the rim until then. Kevin Love should also remain involved and has proven to be an effective fantasy option despite the veteran's lack of minutes.

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (finger) has opted to not have surgery on his broken left middle finger. As a result, the All-Star has a chance to return before the end of the regular season. League sources of Yahoo! Sports went as far as to claim there is "optimism" that Allen returns before the postseason. Allen suffered the injury on March 6 and he's been out ever since. He's currently in the midst of a career-best season, averaging 16.1 points, 10.8 rebounds and 1.3 blocks per game. Rookie big man Evan Mobley will continue to shoulder a heavier workload while Allen is out. Mobley racked up a career-high 30 points in the team's most recent game on Monday.

Cleveland Cavaliers star center Jarrett Allen (finger) is out indefinitely after fracturing his finger during Sunday's game against the Toronto Raptors. This is a crushing blow for Allen, who is in the midst of a fantastic season. He's averaging 16.1 points, 10.8 rebounds and 1.3 blocks per game while shooting 67.7% from the field. The Cavaliers are currently sitting at 37-27 and will be fighting for playoff seeding over the final month of the regular season, but it's not clear at this point whether Allen will be able to rejoin the team before the postseason. With Allen out, rookie sensation Evan Mobley should have some big games in store. He already grabbed a career-high 17 boards in Sunday's game with Allen missing most of the contest. Kevin Love and Lauri Markkanen could also find themselves with a heavier workload going forward.

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (quadriceps) exited Sunday's win over the Toronto Raptors. The 23-year-old sustained a left quad contusion, an injury that ruled him out for the remainder of the contest. As a result, Cedi Osman got some extra run, and he finished with 17 points across 32 minutes of work. Nevertheless, there is a real chance Allen won't be in the lineup on Tuesday against the Indiana Pacers. If that's the case, Osman should be considered an even more viable fantasy option for those looking to fill a void. Kevin Love may also see an uptick in production moving forward until Allen can return.

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (illness) will suit up for Wednesday's game vs. Milwaukee, ending his absence at just one contest. Allen's return will knock Ed Davis from the starting five, thereby zapping him of any DFS intrigue. Allen has been on a rebounding tear across 11 January contests, snatching double-digit boards in nine of those outings. On pace to set new career highs with 16.3 points (on 69.5 percent shooting) and 11 rebounds per game, Allen's breakout has coincided with Cleveland's climb up the standings. The Bucks' lack of size on the interior stands to benefit the big man, who should have elevated rebounding upside.

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (illness) didn't practice on Tuesday, according to head coach J.B. Bickerstaff. Allen missed Monday's game due to a non-COVID related illness and his status for Wednesday's game is in doubt. Ed Davis started in place on Allen on Monday, but only played 17 minutes. Evan Mobley or Kevin Love are much better fantasy options and should play better roles, assuming Allen misses another game. Fantasy managers will have to check back on Wednesday to see if Allen's status changes.

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (illness) has been ruled out for Monday's contest vs. the Knicks, paving the way for Dean Wade to slide into the starting five. Allen's absence comes amidst a stretch of having delivered double-digit rebounding numbers in each of his last five outings, four of which have been double-doubles. Wade's role has heavily fluctuated this season, although he has proven to be an adept DFS punt play when starting, averaging 7.4 points and 4.2 boards across 28.6 minutes in his 16 starts. Kevin Love and Evan Mobley stand to have elevated scoring and rebounding duties, particularly with the Knicks down their starting center in Mitchell Robinson (ankle). Allen's next chance to suit up comes Wednesday against Milwaukee.

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen will return to the starting five for Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He has already cleared the league's COVID-19 health and safety protocols and needed to regain his conditioning. Allen was listed as probable previously, but the Cavs feel he's ready to return. Fantasy managers should expect Allen to see his normal workload in this one. Kevin Love should head back to the bench and lose some of his appeal. However, he'll be worth holding in fantasy formats since he has been playing well lately.

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He has been sidelined due to the league's COVID-19 health and safety protocols. However, Allen has cleared those protocols and is working on his conditioning. His return is likely to come against a depleted Hawks team that has Clint Capela as their only big. This seems like a great opportunity for Allen to make some noise. Fantasy managers should check back and make sure Allen does suit up for this game.

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen will not play on Thursday against Washington. Allen has missed his previous three games because of COVID-19 health and safety protocols. However, he has since been cleared but will need more time to ramp up his conditioning level. As a result, Evan Mobley will take his place, with Dean Wade sliding in at the four spot. Kevin Love should also continue to see heavy minutes, and with Ricky Rubio (knee) and Darius Garland out because of protocols, Mobley and Love could crush their DFS values.

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen secured his 15th double-double of the season with a 13-point and 12-rebound performance during a 115-92 victory over the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday. The 23-year-old went 5-for-9 from the field, including 0-for-1 behind the arc, and 3-for-4 from the line. The Texas product also chipped in with four assists, a block, and a steal across 32 minutes. The fit between rookie big man Evan Mobley and Allen has been a boon for fantasy managers, as both players have been terrific to start the young season. Allen is in the midst of his best season as a pro, averaging a career-best 17.3 points, 11.2 rebounds, 1.8 assists, and 2.2 stocks while shooting 71.0% from the field.

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen had it going on all night against Milwaukee on Monday, shooting 10-for-12 from the field to get a team-high 25 points in a 112-104 loss. He was perfect at the line with five attempts and collected nine rebounds with two blocks and two turnovers in 38 minutes. Allen saw his double-double streak end at seven games here, but he did very little wrong all night and can be pleased with his effort. The 23-year-old gets a couple of very juicy matchups against Minnesota and Sacramento later in the week. He could have success in the next game against Chicago as well, with the Bulls allowing the sixth-most points in the league to opposing centers this season.
