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

Darius Garland Latest News
Listed out for Wednesday
Garland will not play Wednesday against the Pelicans due to left groin soreness. 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. Garland took over as the team's primary scoring threat Sunday while Donovan Mitchell got the day off for rest purposes. Garland 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.
Scores 20, hands out six dimes
Garland notched 20 points (8-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound, six assists and one steal over 32 minutes during Saturday's 105-100 victory over the Nets. Garland is enjoying an excellent start to the season, and he reached the 20-point mark for the fourth time across six outings since the beginning of November. He seems to be alternating with Evan Mobley in the No. 2 role on offense behind Donovan Mitchell, but Garland is also posting solid numbers as a playmaker and defender. He's handed out at least six assists in eight of his 11 contests while recording multiple steals four times.
Drops 27 points vs. Golden State
Garland finished Friday's 136-117 win over the Warriors with 27 points (9-17 FG, 6-11 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six assists, three rebounds and three steals over 30 minutes. Garland was the leading scorer Friday, and while the Cavs led by 41 points at halftime, he still managed to reach 30 minutes of playing time. Garland shot 37.1 percent from three-point range during the 2023-24 regular season, but he has been lethal from beyond the arc this year and is shooting 48.6 percent from deep on 7.4 3PA/G. Through the first 10 regular-season games, Garland is averaging 20.5 points, 6.7 assists, 2.0 rebounds and 1.2 steals over 29.2 minutes per contest.
Just misses double-double
Garland contributed 14 points (5-10 FG, 4-6 3Pt), one rebound, nine assists, one block and one steal in 30 minutes during Wednesday's 131-122 victory over the Pelicans. The undefeated Cavaliers are firing on all cylinders right now, and Garland is reaping the benefits. The sixth-year guard has dished at least eight assists in four of the last five contests while scoring in double digits in eight straight, and over the latter stretch he's averaging 21.4 points, 6.9 assists, 3.6 threes, 2.0 boards and 1.1 steals while shooting 55.2 percent from the floor and an eye-popping 50.0 percent (29-for-58) from beyond the arc.
Shines as top scorer in win
Garland finished with 39 points (15-22 FG, 7-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight assists and two rebounds in 35 minutes during Monday's 116-114 win over the Bucks. Garland scored a game-high 39 points in an extremely efficient outing. The 24-year-old followed up an 11-point and 10-assist game against the Bucks on Saturday with a lights-out performance from downtown Monday. Garland has averaged 20.5 points, 6.5 assists, 2.0 rebounds and 1.0 steals across 28.9 minutes per game through eight regular-season outings. The guard has also shot 52.5 percent from the field and 44.8 percent from beyond the arc thus far.
Leader in scoring in victory
Garland contributed 25 points (8-16 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 6-6 FT), three rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal across 29 minutes during Friday's 120-109 victory over the Magic. Garland led the way for Cleveland on the offensive side of the floor, leading all Cavaliers players in scoring and threes made in another impressive offensive showcase. Garland has connected on at least three thees in four contests this season, having tallied at least 25 points in two outings.
Doubles-doubles in win vs. Lakers
Garland accumulated 12 points (5-14 FG, 2-7 3Pt), 10 assists and two steals over 22 minutes during Wednesday's 134-110 victory over the Lakers. Garland didn't have his best shooting performance and had a rough showing from three-point range, but he salvaged his fantasy line with his 10 assists, representing a season-high mark for him. The emergence of Evan Mobley means Garland may now be the third-best offensive option for Cleveland, which might lead to a slight regression in the scoring column but an uptick in the assists category. Garland is averaging 17.8 points and 6.0 assists per game to open the campaign.
Leads Cavaliers in scoring
Garland chipped in 34 points (12-19 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds, three assists, two blocks and two steals over 33 minutes during Monday's 110-104 win over New York. Garland led the Cavaliers in scoring, putting up a season-high 34 points. Even if you include his dud on Opening Night, Garland is off to a strong start. Through four games, he's posting averages of 19.3 points, 5.0 assists, 2.0 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 3.3 three-pointers while hitting 54.7 percent of his shots from the field.
