Garland is being evaluated for a head injury and will not return during Tuesday's game against the Wizards, Spencer Davies of SI.com reports. He contributed 12 points (4-7 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three assists and one steal across 17 minutes. The star guard left for the locker room with 8:08 remaining in the third quarter after a collision with Jonas Valanciunas and was later ruled out. With Garland sidelined, Caris LeVert and Sam Merrill will likely see an uptick in playing time the rest of the way.

Garland is being evaluated for a head injury and will not return during Tuesday's game against the Wizards, Spencer Davies of SI.com reports. He contributed 12 points (4-7 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three assists and one steal across 17 minutes. The star guard left for the locker room with 8:08 remaining in the third quarter after a collision with Jonas Valanciunas and was later ruled out. With Garland sidelined, Caris LeVert and Sam Merrill will likely see an uptick in playing time the rest of the way.
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. 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.
Mitchell (shoulder) briefly exited Tuesday's game against the Wizards in the third quarter, though he has since checked back in, Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com reports. The superstar exited the game in the beginning of the third quarter after running into a hard screen from Jonas Valanciunas. However, Mitchell should be able to shoulder his normal workload the rest of the way after briefly visiting the locker room.
Jerome (illness) is out for Tuesday's game versus the Wizards, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. Jerome will miss his first game of the season Tuesday after being downgraded from questionable to out due to an illness. Craig Porter and Sam Merrill are candidates to receive increased playing time in his absence. Jerome's next chance to suit up is Thursday's matchup with Denver.
Wade (ankle) is available for Tuesday's game versus the Wizards but will operate on a minutes restriction and come off the bench, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. Wade will return to action Tuesday after missing Cleveland's previous six contests due to a left ankle sprain. While the 28-year-forward is set to play, he will likely log fewer than his season average of 21.9 minutes per contest.
Jerome (illness) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against Washington. Jerome played 11 minutes against the Celtics on Sunday and finished with six points and one assist, but it appears the sixth-year guard is working through an illness. Craig Porter, Caris LeVert and Sam Merrill could see a slight uptick in playing time if Jerome isn't able to play Tuesday. Jerome has failed to reach double-digit points in his last three outings after doing so in each of the four games prior.
Wade (ankle) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Wizards, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. Evan Dammarell of FearTheSword.com reported Sunday that Wade was expected to be sidelined for Tuesday's contest due to a left ankle sprain. However, Fedor relays that Wade was adamant on playing against the Celtics on Sunday, and he participated in 3-on-3 workouts during Monday's practice session. Wade's return would likely impact playing time for Caris LeVert and Georges Niang.
Mobley supplied nine points (4-13 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 10 rebounds, four assists, three blocks and one steal in 35 minutes during Sunday's 115-111 victory over Boston. Apart from a cold night shooting the ball, Mobley filled the box score to the delight of his fantasy managers. Only Donovan Mitchell has been more valuable in Cleveland in nine-category formats, as Mobley is flirting with top-25 value on the season with averages of 17.7 points, 9.3 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.6 blocks.
