Will Darius Garland feature against Phoenix Suns?

Darius Garland is not listed on the team's injury report which makes him a starter against the Suns. He has been one of the key players for the Cavaliers as he averages 15.9 points and 5.3 assists in the last 20 games he has featured in. 

The Cleveland Cavaliers have no players listed on their injury report which gives them added advantage. They lead the league with 122.4 points per game. Garland's presence means that the team can maintain its strong backcourt presence alongside Donovan Mitchell, who leads the team with 24.1 points per game. Garland's ability to lead the charge in terms of offense and knock down threes-averaging 2.3 made three-pointers per game-has been crucial for the Cavaliers success. 

The Phoenix Suns have three players listed on the injury report. Grayson Allen is questionable as he is suffering from a foot injury. Mason Plumlee (quadricep) and Bradley Beal (hamstring) are ruled out. Phoenix are ranked 20th in the league in terms of defense and will rely heavily on Devin Booker and Kevin Durant to lead the charge against Cavaliers. 

The Phoenix Suns will heavily rely on Booker, who averages 25.9 points per game (ninth in the league), and Durant contributes with 22.7 points and 5.5 rebounds per game. Their depth will be tested as Beal and Plumlee are sidelined for the game. 

Cleveland Cavaliers depth and health of the players has been the key factor to their success this season. With Garland at their disposal, Cavaliers offense poses threat to everybody, ranking them first in the three-point shooting at 38.7%. The teams ability to outshine their opponents by an average of 10.4 points per game shows their dominance.
