Fantasy Impact:
Lauri Markkanen has not appeared in a game for the Cavs since January 22. The power forward has averaged 13.6 points and 5.3 rebounds per contest this year. Kevin Love and Cedi Osman have stepped into larger roles in his absence, playing 31 and 36.5 minutes per game over the last two contests respectively. Love has proven to be the more consistent fantasy producer, but we expect both players to provide streaming value until the fifth-year Finnish forward returns to health.
