Jarrett Allen has a chance to return Monday when the Cleveland Cavaliers visit the Charlotte Hornets at 7 p.m. ET. The center is listed as questionable with a right knee contusion after missing both weekend games against Philadelphia and New York.
Allen sustained the injury Wednesday against Oklahoma City during a screen-setting collision with Thunder guard Jared McCain. He played only seven minutes before leaving in the first quarter. Coach Kenny Atkinson started Evan Mobley at center in Saturday's 109-97 victory over the Knicks, with Mobley recording 22 points and six rebounds.
The Cavaliers will also be without Sam Merrill (right elbow), Jaylon Tyson (right ankle sprain), and Nae'Qwan Tomlin (low back stress reaction). Charlotte will be without Grant Williams due to a right hamstring strain, while Moussa Diabaté is questionable with right quadriceps tendinopathy.
