Cavaliers-Jazz Injury Report

The Cleveland Cavaliers and Utah Jazz will each be undermanned in their matchup on Tuesday night.

The injury bug doesn’t seem to be going away anytime soon for the Cleveland Cavaliers. The injury report has been a rotating list of names ever since the start of the regular season and that continues as the Cavs prepare to take on the Utah Jazz on Tuesday night.

Both Cleveland and Utah will be undermanned on Tuesday night, per NBA's Injury Report.

Donovan Mitchell - OUT

Donovan Mitchell continues to nurse a knee injury as he works to be healthy for the Playoffs. He has been listed as OUT against the Jazz due to management on his knee.

Isaac Okoro - OUT

Isaac Okoro had been Cleveland’s Iron Man throughout the season. He’s missed a stretch of games back in November but has been there for the Wine and Gold ever since. However, now Okoro is dealing with a toe injury that will force him to miss his second straight game.

The Cavs have officially listed Okoro as OUT against the Jazz.

Dean Wade - OUT

Fans finally got an update on Dean Wade, but it’s not one that they’ll be happy about. Reports indicate that Wade’s knee injury could force him to miss the rest of the regular season as he continues to rehab. There is some hope that the defensive stopper could be back in time for the Playoffs.

With that being said, Wade has been listed as OUT in Utah.

Craig Porter Jr. - OUT

All of the injuries created an opportunity for Craig Porter Jr. to showcase his skillset. He’s been a key piece in helping the Cavs navigate the season through all their other injuries to the roster. However, Cleveland will be without his bench precise against the Jazz as well. 

Porter has been listed as OUT against Utah with an illness. 

Utah Jazz

The Jazz have also ruled a few members of their team so far. The most impactful of these players are former Cavaliers Jordan Clarkson and Lauri Markkanen who each played a role in Cleveland’s rebuild. Darius Bazley and John Collins have also been ruled OUT for the matchup.
