Sam Merrill scores 10 points in loss to OKC

Sam Merril scored 10 points (3-7 FG, 2-4 3P, 2-2 FT) with seven rebounds, an assist, and two stocks in the Cavs’ 124-116 loss to OKC on Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact

Merrill was second on the Cavs’ bench in scoring in the loss. He got a season high in rebounds and his first block of the season, both positives for him. However, given his role, albeit steady as it is, he’s a low-end start at best.
