What happened

Cleveland visits Oklahoma City on Wednesday to finish the season series, and the Cavaliers' injury report lists Peyton Watson, Jaylon Tyson, and Nae'Qwan Tomlin out.

Oklahoma City expects Alex Caruso back, but its report still lists Jalen Williams, Chet Holmgren, and Cason Wallace out, with Jaylin Williams questionable.

LINEUP CONTEXT

Those absences leave both teams shorthanded again, so lineup and wing usage may shift if Jaylin Williams cannot play.
