Sam Merrill (elbow) has been ruled out for Saturday night's game against the New York Knicks.
Fantasy Impact
Merrill suffered an elbow injury on Friday night and will not be available to play on Saturday as a result. He may miss more time beyond this game as well, and fantasy managers should expect more work for Craig Porter Jr. and Tyrese Proctor until he's back.
Sam Merrill left Friday's game early with an elbow injury.
Fantasy Impact
Merrill injured his right elbow during the first half. He is day-to-day heading into the weekend.
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.
Sam Merrill is available for Game 3 on Saturday against the Pistons.
Fantasy Impact
Merrill is good to go after being listed as questionable. He should remain in his usual role for the Cavaliers.
Sam Merrill is listed as questionable for Game 3 on Saturday against the Pistons.
Fantasy Impact
