Will Darius Garland play tonight against the Memphis Grizzlies? Latest update on the Cleveland Cavaliers star's injury report (February 23, 2025)

Cleveland Cavaliers star point guard Darius Garland is listed as questionable for Sunday’s highly anticipated matchup against the Memphis Grizzlies due to a hip injury. The Cavaliers, who boast an impressive 46-10 record, will face the Grizzlies at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse in Cleveland, Ohio, with tip-off scheduled for 7:00 PM ET. Darius Garland’s potential absence could significantly impact the Cleveland Cavaliers’ offensive rhythm. Over the last 20 games, Garland has been a key contributor, averaging 21.9 points, 6.4 assists, and 2.9 three-pointers per game. His ability to facilitate the offense and stretch the floor has been instrumental in Cleveland’s success this season. The Cavaliers are already dealing with another injury concern, as center Jarrett Allen is also questionable with a hand issue. Allen, who averages 10.4 rebounds per game, ranks 10th in the league in that category and is a crucial piece of Cleveland’s defense and rebounding efforts. The Cavaliers have been dominant this season, leading the NBA with 122.8 points per game while allowing just 111.5 points, ranking ninth in defense. Their +631 scoring differential is a testament to their balanced attack and defensive prowess. However, facing a talented Grizzlies squad without Darius Garland and Allen could pose a significant challenge. Memphis, currently 37-19, will also be shorthanded, with Cam Spencer out due to a thumb injury and Vince Williams Jr. listed as day-to-day with a knee issue. Despite these setbacks, the Grizzlies remain a formidable opponent, led by Jaren Jackson Jr., who averages 22.8 points per game. Fans can catch the game live on Fubo, with regional restrictions potentially applying. As the Cavaliers aim to maintain their momentum, all eyes will be on Garland’s status and whether he can take the court to help his team secure another crucial victory.Also read: Will Ja Morant play tonight against the Cleveland Cavaliers?
