Darius Garland (jaw) expected back Wednesday for Cavaliers
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland (jaw) plans to return on Wednesday against the Detroit Pistons, reports Shams Charania of The Athletic and Stadium.
What It Means:
Garland is ready to return from a 19-game absence. That will likely result in fewer minutes for Sam Merrill, Isaac Okoro, and Dean Wade moving forward.
numberFire's models project Garland for 30.4 minutes and 33.9 FanDuel points on Wednesday. He averaged 36.5 FanDuel points in two previous matchups with the Pistons this season.
