Jaylon Tyson Injury News & Updates

Tyson tallied 27 points (10-13 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 11 rebounds, four assists and one steal over 31 minutes during the Cavaliers' 135-119 win over the Pacers on Monday.

Tyson was the game's leading rebounder during Monday's game and finished as the Cavaliers' second-leading scorer, as he served as the perfect compliment to Donovan Mitchell (43 points). Tyson's performance also marked his first double-double of his young career, and he could remain in Cleveland's starting lineup Wednesday against the Trail Blazers if one or both of Jarrett Allen (finger) and Darius Garland (rest) were not cleared to play. As a starter, Tyson is averaging 14.6 points, 5.5 rebounds,m 2.1 assists, 2.8 threes, 1.2 steals and 0.9 blocks over 27.9 minutes per game.

Tyson posted 17 points (6-18 FG, 5-12 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist, two blocks and two steals in 34 minutes during Sunday's 117-115 loss to the Celtics.

Tyson made his 11th start of the season, stuffing the stat sheet while tying a season high in triples. The 2024 first-rounder has been a revelation thus far in 2025-26, and he's been particularly valuable in nine-category formats for his efficiency and low turnover rate. Across his 11 starts, Tyson has averaged 13.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 1.2 steals, 1.0 blocks and 2.6 three-pointers per game while shooting 54.8 percent from the field.

Tyson will start Sunday's game against the Celtics, Serena Winters of FanDuel Sports Network Ohio reports.

Tyson will enter the starting lineup due to Jarrett Allen (finger) being out of the lineup. Over his last three starts, Tyson holds averages of 12.0 points, 7.0 rebounds and 1.7 assists in 28.0 minutes per contest.

Tyson is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Hawks.

The Cavaliers will return several regulars to the first unit, so Tyson will return to his regular bench role. Tyson is averaging 6.8 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game when deployed off the bench this season.

Tyson provided 15 points (6-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), nine rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal over 34 minutes during Monday's 110-99 loss to the Raptors.

Tyson recorded his third straight start since his five game absence due to a concussion and got right back on track, stuffing the stat sheet and shooting efficiently from the field. He also recorded a season high in minutes, but this was likely due to the absences of De'Andre Hunter (rest), Sam Merrill (hand), Dean Wade (knee) and Jarrett Allen (finger). Once Cleveland gets healthier, Tyson will likely be reverted back to the bench, but his strong performances have made a case for him to still remain in the rotation.

Tyson (concussion) tallied 14 points (6-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt), eight rebounds and three assists across 27 minutes Friday in the Cavaliers' 120-109 win over the Pacers.

After making a recovery from a concussion that had kept him out each of Cleveland's past five games, Tyson cracked the starting five for the eighth time in 12 appearances on the season and came through with an efficient, all-around line to satisfy those that activated him or streamed him into fantasy lineups. Tyson is the most likely candidate to move to the bench if center Jarrett Allen (finger) is able to play Sunday against the Clippers after sitting out Friday, but the second-year wing should still be in line for a meaningful role on the second unit when Cleveland is at full strength. After seeing scarce playing time as a rookie, Tyson has shown excellent growth in Year 2 with averages of 11.3 points (on 51.5 percent shooting from the field), 4.3 rebounds, 2.2 three-pointers, 1.9 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.8 blocks in 25.9 minutes per contest.

Tyson (concussion) is in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Pacers, Spencer Davies of SI.comreports.

Cleveland is deploying a smaller starting lineup in the absence of Jarrett Allen (finger). Friday is set to be the eighth start of the year for Tyson, who has averaged 13.6 points, 4.1 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.1 blocks in 26.7 minutes per contest through seven games as a starter this season. Tyson is returning from a five-game absence after passing the concussion protocol.

Tyson (concussion) is available for Friday's game against the Pacers, Tony East of Forbes.com reports.

Tyson was expected to be upgraded to available based on Kenny Atkinson's words earlier Friday, and the wing will make his first appearance since Nov. 12. He's going to have a minutes' restriction and is likely to be held to under 30 minutes, a scenario that limits his fantasy upside.

Tyson (concussion) will play Friday against the Pacers, Spencer Davies of SI.com reports.

Tyson's minutes will be monitored in his first game back from a five-game absence Friday night, so he's not a great target in daily fantasy leagues. Tyson's return might result in fewer minutes for Nae'Qwan Tomlin.

Tyson (concussion) is questionable for Friday's game against the Pacers.

Tyson hasn't taken the court since Nov. 12 while in the league's concussion protocol but appears to be trending in the right direction given the fact that he's been upgraded to questionable. The team should have another update on his status closer to Friday's tipoff.

Tyson (concussion) will miss Wednesday's game against the Rockets.

Tyson will be sidelined for a fifth straight game and continues to be ruled out a day in advance of games. For now, fantasy managers can consider him questionable at best for Friday against the Pacers.

Tyson (concussion) won't play Monday against the Bucks.

Tyson remains in the concussion protocol and will miss his fourth straight contest. His next chance to play comes Wednesday against the Rockets.

Tyson (concussion) will not suit up for Saturday's game against the Grizzlies.

Saturday will mark Tyson's third straight game on the sidelines, and for now, he should be considered questionable at best for Monday's matchup with Milwaukee. With Tyson unavailable Saturday, expect more minutes for Dean Wade and Nae'Qwan Tomlin.

Tyson (concussion) will not play Thursday against Toronto.

Tyson will now miss consecutive games due to concussion, and it is unclear exactly when he will return. While he is sidelined, expect Sam Merrill and Dean Wade to see extended playing time as a result.

Tyson (concussion) is out for Wednesday's game against Miami.

Tyson could have been a strong streaming option Wednesday, but he'll instead join a lengthy list of absences for Cleveland. The forward will be hoping to clear the concussion protocol ahead of Thursday's tilt against Toronto. With Tyson unavailable, the Cavaliers are positioned to lean on De'Andre Hunter and Dean Wade at the forward spots.

Tyson notched nine points (3-10 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds, one assist, three steals and one block over 31 minutes during Monday's 140-138 overtime loss to the Heat.

Darius Garland exited Monday's game after aggravating his surgically repaired toe, so he could be looking at another long-term absence. Tyson entered the game after Garland went down and was in the closing lineup through the overtime period, so he could find himself starting again Wednesday if Garland can't give it a go. Through seven starts this season, Tyson has registered averages of 13.6 points, 4.1 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 2.7 triples, 1.4 steals, 1.1 blocks and 1.3 turnovers per contest.

Tyson is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Heat.

Tyson started Saturday's matchup against the Bulls and turned in a solid performance but will return to the bench with Darius Garland (toe) back in action. He's likely to remain a key reserve, logging significant minutes off the bench and stepping into the starting lineup when Garland rests.

Tyson contributed 17 points (6-10 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, three assists, two blocks and two steals across 31 minutes during Saturday's 128-122 win over Chicago.

Donovan Mitchell and De'Andre Hunter led the way in scoring for the Cavaliers with 29 points each, but there's no doubt that Tyson made a significant contribution to the win thanks to an impressive stat line. He recorded at least two tallies in each of the six major categories and once again put his two-way ability on full display. The forward got off to a slow start this season but has been playing much better of late. This was his sixth consecutive game scoring in double digits while surpassing the 15-point mark four times over that stretch. As if that wasn't enough, his seven rebounds were also a season-high output for Tyson in that category.

Tyson is in the starting lineup for Saturday's matchup with the Bulls.

Darius Garland (toe) is out for a rest day, so Tyson will draw the spot-start and he'll be joined in the first unit by Donovan Mitchell, De'Andre Hunter, Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen. In six starts this season, Tyson has registered averages of 13.0 points, 3.7 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 2.7 triples, 1.3 steals and 1.0 block per contest.

Tyson will come off the bench during Friday's game against the Wizards.

After starting the last four games, Tyson will be in the second unit with Darius Garland making his season debut. Tyson is currently averaging 10.8 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.0 steals per game, shooting 50.8 percent from the field and 43.6 percent from deep.

Tyson amassed 10 points (4-7 FG, 2-5 3Pt), five rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals across 29 minutes during Wednesday's 132-121 win over the 76ers.

Tyson remained in the starting lineup despite Darius Garland (toe) making his season debut Wednesday, shifting Sam Merrill to the bench instead. It is apparent the coaching staff likes what they saw from Tyson with the starters, and he showed out defensively, registering two steals and a block (averages 1.0 steals and 0.8 blocks so far). Expect Tyson to remain in the starting lineup for the forseeable future.

Tyson racked up 18 points (6-14 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds and two assists over 25 minutes during Sunday's 117-109 victory over Atlanta.

That's now three consecutive games (all starts) with at least 18 points for Tyson. The swingman holds some short-term fantasy appeal in deeper leagues, but Darius Garland (toe) doesn't appear to be far off from making his season debut. That said, Tyson has averaged 13.6 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.0 blocks per contest in his five games as a starter this season.

Tyson ended with 18 points (7-14 FG, 4-8 3Pt), four assists, three rebounds and three blocks over 33 minutes during Friday's 112-101 loss to the Raptors.

With Sam Merrill (hip) sidelined, Tyson got the starting nod for a second consecutive game. The second-year swingman finished as the team's third-leading scorer and was one of three Cleveland players to reach double figures. He also led all players in blocks. After recording single-digit points in each of the Cavaliers' first four games, Tyson has scored at least 18 in back-to-back outings. He's averaging 9.7 points, 2.7 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.0 steals in 24.3 minutes per contest across six regular-season outings (four starts).

Tyson generated 19 points (8-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, one assist and three steals across 27 minutes of Wednesday's 125-105 loss to Boston.

Tyson drew the start Wednesday with Sam Merrill (hip) sidelined, and he tied for the team high in points. The outing marked Tyson's first time scoring in double digits this season. Despite starting the contest, Tyson didn't start the second half, as Dean Wade replaced him in the first five. Wednesday's outing also marked the second-year player's second game with three steals this season.

Tyson is starting Wednesday against the Celtics.

Tyson will draw his third start of the season, filling in for the injured Sam Merrill (hip). Tyson has some additional streaming appeal Wednesday.

Tyson won't start in Sunday's game against the Bucks, Serena Winters of FanDuel Sports Network Ohio reports.

The 22-year-old swingman got the starting nod in Cleveland's first two regular-season games, though he'll retreat to the bench with De'Andre Hunter (knee) returning to game action. Over two outings this season, Tyson has averaged 6.5 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.5 steals, 1.0 assists and 1.0 blocks while shooting 62.5 percent from the field in 21.5 minutes per contest.

Tyson will start Wednesday's game against the Knicks.

With Darius Garland (foot) De'Andre Hunter (knee) and Max Strus (foot) sidelined to start the season, Tyson and Sam Merrill will start alongside Donovan Mitchell, Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen. Tyson was a training camp standout and could carve out a regular rotation role even when the Cavaliers are at full strength.

The Cavaliers exercised Tyson's third-year team option Wednesday, per Tom Withers of the Associated Press.

The move will keep Tyson under team control for the 2026-27 campaign. With Max Strus (foot) out for the onset of the upcoming year, Tyson will likely be fighting with Craig Porter for reserve minutes.

Tyson will come off the bench during Tuesday's preseason game against the Pistons.

Tyson will be in the second unit after starting in Sunday's preseason loss to the Celtics. He finished with 16 points, five rebounds and four assists in a strong performance as a starter.

Tyson produced 16 points (6-14 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-4 FT), five rebounds, four assists and three turnovers across 28 minutes of Sunday's 138-107 preseason loss to Boston.

The Cavaliers rested multiple players Sunday, including Donovan Mitchell, Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen. Tyson was ice cold in his previous two exhibitions, shooting a combined 2-of-12 from the field, but he took advantage of some extra usage in this one. With the Cavaliers expected to be shorthanded to open the season, Tyson is likely to be in the rotation on Opening Night.

Tyson finished scoreless (0-5 FG, 0-5 3Pt) with three assists, one steal and two blocks in 18 minutes of Tuesday's 118-117 preseason loss to Chicago.

The Cavaliers plugged Tyson into the starting lineup with Donovan Mitchell running the point and Lonzo Ball coming off the bench. This could potentially be their lineup for Opening Night with Darius Garland (toe) sidelined, but Tyson will need to step it up if he wants to hold onto this job. During his rookie campaign in 2024-25, Tyson appeared in 47 regular-season contests with averages of 3.6 points, 2.0 rebounds and 0.9 assists.

Tyson will start in Tuesday's preseason game against the Bulls, Spencer Davies of SI.com reports.

With Darius Garland (toe) and Sam Merrill (undisclosed) sidelined, Tyson will get the starting nod in Cleveland's preseason opener. The 22-year-old swingman appeared in 47 regular-season games (three starts) in 2024-25, during which he averaged 3.6 points and 2.0 rebounds across 9.6 minutes per game.

Tyson (rest) did appear in Saturday's 82-71 Summer League loss to the Warriors.

Tyson was idle for the Cavaliers' final Summer League contest. The wing impressed on the offensive end earlier this summer, scoring 21 points in his last outing Sunday against the Heat.

Tyson (rest) didn't play in Wednesday's 94-86 Summer League loss to the Kings.

Tyson doesn't appear to be dealing with an injury, as it's possible that the Cavaliers are simply monitoring his workload. Although the 2024 first-rounder hasn't officially been shut down for the rest of the Summer League, it wouldn't be shocking if Tyson didn't suit up again for maintenance purposes.

Tyson finished with 21 points (8-17 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 3-5 FT), six rebounds, five assists, two steals and one block across 26 minutes during Sunday's Summer League 92-72 win against the Heat.

Tyson matched Miami's Kel'el Ware with a game-high 21 points while also getting the job done in many different areas to help secure the win for Cleveland. Tyson has now scored 18 or more points in both of the Las Vegas Summer League games he has played.

Tyson supplied 18 points (3-13 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 9-10 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and two blocks across 31 minutes in Saturday's 93-83 Summer League win over the Bucks.

Tyson was inefficient from the field Saturday but still finished as one of four Cavaliers players to score double-digit points in the win. The 22-year-old swingman saw fairly inconsistent playing time with Cleveland in 2024-25 and will look to carve out a more significant role with Isaac Okoro and Ty Jerome no longer on the roster. Over 47 regular-season appearances (three starts) last season, Tyson averaged 3.6 points and 2.0 rebounds in 9.6 minutes per contest.

Tyson totaled 20 points (8-17 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT), 12 assists, four rebounds, two steals and one block across 32 minutes in Thursday's 116-115 Summer League loss to the Pacers.

Tyson showcased his playmaking skills Thursday, dishing out a game-high 12 assists. The 2024 first-round pick is aiming to carve out a larger role in his second season after posting 3.6 points and 2.0 rebounds in 9.6 minutes per game over 47 appearances, including three starts, during the 2024-25 campaign.

Tyson closed with 31 points (12-25 FG, 4-12 3Pt, 3-4 FT), seven rebounds, four assists, one block and three steals in 46 minutes during Sunday's 126-118 double-overtime loss to the Pacers.

Tyson made his third start of the season Sunday with the Cavaliers resting their top rotational players. Tyson has been used sparingly by the Cavaliers this season with an average of 9.6 minutes across 47 appearances, but he made the most of his extended run Sunday with multiple career highs. Tyson is unlikely to crack the playoff rotation for Cleveland, however.

Tyson is in Cleveland's starting lineup against Indiana on Sunday.

Tyson will make his third start of the season Sunday due to the Cavaliers resting its top rotational players. He hasn't been a regular part of the rotation this season, though he did play 22 minutes in Friday's win over the Knicks and finished with seven points, five rebounds, one assist and one steal.

Tyson (knee) played the final 2:11 of Wednesday's 124-105 win over the Knicks, finishing with one rebound, one assist and one turnover.

Tyson had missed the Cavaliers' previous six games due to a left knee bone bruise before retuning to action Wednesday. Though Cleveland was without Ty Jerome (knee) and Dean Wade (illness) on Wednesday, Tyson wasn't featured in the rotation, as all of his playing time came well after the outcome as decided.

Tyson (knee) isn't on the injury report for Wednesday's game versus the Knicks.

Tyson will return to action Wednesday after missing Cleveland's previous seven contests due to a left knee bone bruise. The rookie forward is averaging 3.2 points, 1.3 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 7.9 minutes across his last 10 appearances.

Tyson (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Clippers, Ethan Sands of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Tyson will miss a seventh straight game for the Cavaliers on Sunday, as he continues to deal with a left knee contusion. The next chance for the rookie forward to return to the floor will be Wednesday against the Knicks.

Tyson (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against Detroit.

Tyson will miss his fifth consecutive contest due to a bone bruise in his left knee. His next chance to play will come Sunday against the Clippers. The 22-year-old has received little playing time of late, so his absence shouldn't cause any major waves in the rotation.

Tyson (knee) is out for Thursday's game against the Spurs.

Tyson will miss the first leg of this back-to-back set, and given that this will be his fourth consecutive absence, it wouldn't be surprising if he's also sidelined for the matchup against the Pistons on Friday. That said, the 22-year-old has received little playing time of late, so his absence won't generate too much of an issue in the Cavaliers' rotation.

Tyson (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against Portland.

Tyson will miss his third consecutive contest due to left knee soreness. The 22-year-old has received little playing time of late, so his absence shouldn't cause any waves in the rotation.

Tyson (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jazz, Serena Winters of FanDuel Sports Network Ohio reports.

Tyson isn't part of Cleveland's usual rotation, so his absence shouldn't impact much, considering the Cavaliers are at full strength. His next chance to suit up will come Tuesday in Portland.

Tyson (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Jazz.

Tyson has missed the Cavaliers' last two games due to left knee soreness, and a decision on his status will be made closer to Sunday's 3:30 p.m. ET tipoff. However, he's not expected to play a big role in the rotation even if deemed available.

Tyson (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Suns.

Tyson will miss a second straight game due to left knee soreness. The next opportunity for the rookie forward to play will come Sunday against the Jazz.

Tyson is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Suns due to left knee soreness.

Tyson is in danger of missing Friday's contest due to a knee injury after being a late addition to the injury report. However, the rookie forward's potential absence shouldn't significantly impact Cleveland's rotation.

Tyson scored 15 points (6-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), grabbed five rebounds and blocked one shot in 17 minutes during Thursday's 137-115 win over the Hawks.

The rookie forward put together the second-best scoring game of his young career in the blowout victory and recorded just his second block while he was at it. He also contributed on the glass, and his efficiency was a plus for fantasy purposes as well. However, the bulk of his production came in the fourth quarter with the game already put away, so he likely can't be relied on for volume like this on a regular basis. Nonetheless, he'll look to build off this outing Sunday against the Mavericks.

Tyson will come off the bench in Thursday's game against Atlanta.

The 22-year-old got the spot start for Darius Garland (rest) in Wednesday's win over Miami, during which Tyson posted four points (2-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt), five rebounds and four assists across 30 minutes. The swingman has averaged 4.6 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 12.0 minutes per game over his last five outings off the bench.

Tyson will be in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Heat, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Tyson will make a second straight start for the Cavaliers on Wednesday, with Darius Garland (rest) missing this game in Miami.

Tyson chipped in 10 points (3-4 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one steal in 15 minutes during Monday's 118-92 victory over the Suns.

Tyson got some extended minutes off the bench in Monday's contest due to the blowout nature of the game, finishing with a bench-high-tying scoring total while ending as one of five Cavaliers in double figures in scoring. Tyson posted his second double-digit point total of the season while hauling in five or more boards on three occasions.

Tyson played the final 2:44 of Sunday's 108-93 loss to the Pacers, finishing with zero points (0-1 FG) and one assist in three minutes.

After being recalled from the G League's Cleveland Charge earlier in the day, Tyson was called upon off the bench Sunday, though he wasn't a part of the rotation while the game was competitive. The Cavaliers will likely have to be without multiple wing players in a given game in order for Tyson to receive meaningful playing time.

Tyson posted 23 points (8-14 FG, 5-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 16 rebounds and one assist in 34 minutes during Saturday's 113-103 G League win over the Grand Rapids Gold.

Making only his fifth G League appearance of the campaign, Tyson scored at least 20 points for the third time with the Charge and grabbed a season-high 16 boards, marking his second double-double. He's averaged 19.4 points and 9.2 rebounds in 33.5 minutes per game for Cleveland.

The Cavaliers assigned Tyson to the G League's Cleveland Charge on Thursday.

Tyson continues to be an inconsistent part of Cleveland's NBA rotation, averaging just 4.2 minutes over his last five appearances. However, Tyson is averaging 34.4 minutes across his three G league outings this season.

Tyson (illness) isn't on the injury report for Friday's game versus the Bucks.

Tyson will return to action Friday after missing Cleveland's previous contest due to an illness. The rookie forward is averaging 1.0 points and 1.2 rebounds in 5.6 minutes across his last five appearances.

Tyson has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Nets due to an illness.

Tyson isn't a regular part of the Cavaliers' rotation, so his absence shouldn't impact fantasy hoops. His next chance to suit up will come Friday against the Bucks.

The Cavaliers recalled Tyson from the G League's Cleveland Charge on Sunday.

Tyson was sent to the G League on Saturday, but the Charge didn't have a game, so he presumably just practiced. He hasn't been able to hold down a stable role at the NBA level, but Tyson has been a standout performer whenever he's with the Charge.

The Cavaliers assigned Tyson to the G League's Cleveland Charge on Saturday.

Tyson will return to the G League after a brief stint in the NBA. Tyson is averaging 23.5 points, 8.0 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 2.5 steals in 35.5 minutes across his two appearances for the Charge this season.

Tyson was recalled to the Cavaliers on Thursday.

Tyson is back with the parent club ahead of its matchup against the Hornets on Saturday. In his last five NBA appearances, the 22-year-old averaged 1.4 points and 1.8 rebounds across 7.8 minutes per game.

The Cavaliers assigned Tyson to the G League's Cleveland Charge on Friday.

Tyson has made just one G League appearance this season. He will likely return to the NBA after a brief stint with the Charge.

The Cavaliers recalled Tyson from the G League's Cleveland Charge on Tuesday.

Tyson spent the afternoon with the Charge for their game against the Skyforce, and he was recalled shortly after. He played 38 minutes and finished with 25 points (8-21 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 4-5 FT), six rebounds, five assists and two steals.

Head coach Kenny Atkinson told reporters that Tyson will not start Sunday against the Raptors, Evan Dammarell of FearTheSword.com reports.

The rookie first-round pick made the first start of his NBA career Wednesday against the Pelicans, and he finished with 16 points, 11 rebounds, seven assists and two steals over 37 minutes. He'll retreat to a reserve role Sunday, but his strong performance Wednesday may have earned Tyson a larger role in the Cavaliers' rotation moving forward.

Tyson had 16 points (7-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 11 rebounds, seven assists and two steals across 37 minutes during Wednesday's 128-100 win over New Orleans.

Tyson got his first career start Wednesday and he ended up doing it all for Cleveland while posting a double-double and putting forth the best performance of his young career in a winning effort. Tyson, who recorded team-high marks in assists and steals, set career-high marks in every statistical category, previously tallying at least three points in two outings this year.

Tyson is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Pelicans.

The Cavaliers are thin in terms of their wing depth and will give the rookie the first start of his career. Tyson will play alongside Ty Jerome, Donovan Mitchell, Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley. The rookie out of California only averages 4.3 minutes per game in six outings this season, but he's bound to experience an uptick in his minutes in this contest.

Tyson (hip) played the final 3:26 of Friday's 136-117 win over the Warriors, missing both of his field-goal attempts and committing a turnover during his time on the court.

The rookie first-round pick made his first appearance for the Cavaliers since missing the team's first three games of the month due to a hip injury. Tyson remains firmly outside of head coach Kenny Atkinson's rotation and could be a candidate to head to the G League's Cleveland Charge if playing time remains hard to come by at the NBA level.

Tyson (hip) has been cleared for Wednesday's game versus New Orleans, Serena Winters of Bally Sports Cleveland reports.

Tyson and Caris LeVert (knee) will both be available Wednesday, leaving Dean Wade (illness) and Max Strus (hip) as the only absences on Cleveland's roster. Tyson will return from a three-game absence, although he has compiled just 21 minutes of action in four appearances.

Tyson (hip) is questionable to play Wednesday against the Pelicans.

Tyson has been dealing with a left hip sprain, and while the questionable tag leaves the door open for a potential return, it's worth noting Tyson hasn't played since Oct. 30. The rookie has been limited to just four appearances off the bench this season, so he shouldn't have a lot of upside in fantasy even if healthy.

Tyson (hip) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Bucks.

Tyson will miss a third straight game due to left hip tightness. He's yet to play more than eight minutes in a game this season, so his ongoing absence shouldn't impact Cleveland's rotation.

Tyson (hip) won't play in Saturday's game versus the Bucks.

Tyson will miss his second straight contest due to left hip tightness. However, his absence won't significantly impact Cleveland's rotation.

Tyson is out for Friday's game versus the Magic due to left hip tightness.

Despite not appearing on the injury report all day, Tyson is a late scratch for Friday's contest. His next chance to suit up is Saturday's matchup with Milwaukee.

Tyson closed Friday's 113-101 victory over the Pistons with no counting stats in one minute.

Tyson showed his face in the win, breaking into the rotation as the clock expired. The Cavaliers are once again pushing to be a competitive team in the Eastern Conference, meaning Tyson is unlikely to see too much court time. There are no fantasy moves to be made here.

Tyson is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's preseason contest versus Detroit.

Tyson gives way to Caris LeVert in Wednesday's starting lineup. The rookie figures to factor prominently into the wing rotation, however, as Sam Merrill (wrist) and Max Strus (hip) are inactive.

Tyson posted 11 points (5-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt), six rebounds, four assists, two steals and a block across 29 minutes in Thursday's 129-117 preseason loss to the Pacers.

The rookie out of Cal was selected with the 20th overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, and he could have a role off the bench -- albeit minimal -- if he cracks the Opening Night roster. He'll be a solid depth piece in the rotation, but he's not expected to have much of a role, thus being an afterthought in most fantasy formats.

Tyson is in the starting lineup for Thursday's preseason game against the Pacers.

The Cavaliers are resting most of their regulars for this contest, and Tyson will get the nod in the backcourt alongside Ty Jerome since both Donovan Mitchell and Darius Garland will be rested.

Tyson scored 21 points during Thursday's exhibition loss to the Lakers, adding 11 rebounds, nine assists, one three-pointer, two steals and two turnovers across 32 minutes.

Tyson was coming off a 2-of-6 shooting performance, but he got things back on track in this one, finishing 6-of-9 from the field and 8-of-9 at the stripe. Overall, Tyson has looked pretty good in Las Vegas, so it'll be interesting to see if the 21-year-old can immediately earn a sizable role in Cleveland. He'll be someone to keep an eye on over training camp and the preseason.

Tyson was selected by the Cavaliers with the No. 20 overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft.

Tyson began his collegiate career at Texas before spending his sophomore season at Texas Tech and then moving on to Cal. As a junior, Tyson took a big step forward, pacing the Bears with 19.6 points per game to go with 6.8 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 1.2 steals. A versatile creator who uses his size well, Tyson is capable of playing both on and off the ball, though he'll likely be asked to function as a catch-and-shoot threat early in his NBA career. Last season, Tyson knocked down 36.0 percent of his three-point attempts after shooting 40.2 percent from deep at Texas Tech in 2022-23.
