Jarrett Allen (illness) added to Cavaliers injury report Wednesday
Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (illness) is now questionable for Wednesday's game against the Detroit Pistons.
What It Means:
Allen is a late addition to the injury report. He has been in every lineup for the Cavaliers since missing the first five games of the season, but it looks like that streak might end on Wednesday night. Dean Wade or Georges Niang will likely draw the start if Allen is out, while Evan Mobley would presumably shift over to center.
Allen has an $8,500 salary on Wednesday and numberFire's models project him for 37.7 FanDuel points over 32.4 minutes. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Cavaliers' implied total (122.0) is second-best out of 18 teams on the Main slate. The Pistons are allowing the third-most FanDuel points per game to the center position this season.
