Jarrett Allen (ankle) available, starting for Cavaliers on Friday; Georges Niang back to bench
Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen will start Friday in the team's game against the Indiana Pacers.
What It Means:
Allen is making his 2023-24 season debut after missing the first week of the season due to an ankle bone bruise. It's unclear if his minutes will be limited as he eases back into the swing of things. He'll immediately start, sending Georges Niang back to a role off the bench.
Our models project Allen for 12.7 points, 9.8 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 32.0 FanDuel points across 31.1 minutes of action.
