Not starting Monday
Proctor won't start against the Hornets on Monday.
Analyse
With Donovan Mitchell (illness) back in action, Proctor will slide to the second unit Monday. The rookie second-rounder drew his first career start in Friday's loss to the Bulls, during which he posted 16 points (6-15 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one steal in 27 minutes. However, he should see a significant decline in playing time with Mitchell, Craig Porter (illness) and Sam Merrill (hand) all having been cleared to play.

Hits for 16 in Friday's start
Proctor supplied 16 points (6-15 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one steal in 27 minutes during Friday's 136-125 loss to the Bulls.
Analyse
Making his first career NBA start with Donovan Mitchell (illness) sidelined, Proctor set a new personal best in rebounding while falling just short of setting a new season scoring high. The 2025 second-round pick hasn't yet earned a regular spot in the Cavaliers' backcourt rotation, but he's played at least 17 minutes in four of his last seven appearances dating back to Nov. 23 and scored in double digits three times during that span. With Sam Merrill (hand) and Max Strus (foot) on the shelf as well, there could be opportunities for Proctor if he wins the trust of coach Kenny Atkinson.

Starting Friday
Proctor is in the starting lineup for Friday's game versus the Bulls.
Analyse
Proctor is getting the first start of his career with Donovan Mitchell (illness) out, and he'll be joined in the first unit by Darius Garland, Jaylon Tyson, Dean Wade and Jarrett Allen. Proctor could be viewed as a low-end streamer in deep leagues for those seeking some points and triples.
