Jarrett Allen (illness) ruled out again for Cavaliers
Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (illness) has been ruled out of Wednesday's game versus the Brooklyn Nets.
What It Means:
Allen did not travel with the team to Brooklyn and he will miss a second straight game. The Cavaliers play again on Thursday against the Golden State Warriors, so hopefully Allen will be feeling better for the second leg of the back-to-back. Evan Mobley sprained his elbow on Monday and is out 2-4 weeks, but Kevin Love (conditioning/recovery) is expected back Wednesday.
Allen is averaging 34.4 FanDuel points per game this season and registering a 16.5% usage rate. He ranks 9th in the league with an 18.3 total rebound percentage.
