Near triple-double off bench
Porter ended Tuesday's 141-118 victory over the Pelicans with 12 points (4-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, eight assists, one block and two steals across 22 minutes.
Analysis
It was a well-rounded effort for Porter on Tuesday, with the third-year guard finishing with a season high in rebounds while dishing his most assists since Nov. 12 against the Heat (nine dimes). It was also his first game scoring in double-digits since Dec. 5 against the Spurs, and while his minutes have fluctuated this season, Porter should have a more reliable role in the rotation in games when Lonzo Ball (knee) is sidelined.

Available to play

Analysis
Porter is back after a one-game stint on the sidelines, and he should resume his usual role in the second unit. Porter is averaging 5.0 points and 2.4 assists per game this season.

Expected to play

Out with illness
Porter is out for Friday's game against the Bulls due to an illness, per Chuck Swirsky of the Bulls Radio Network.
Analysis
Porter is joining Donovan Mitchell (illness) as a spectator Friday, with both players being under the weather. With both guards sidelined, Tyrese Proctor, Lonzo Ball and Nae'Qwan Tomlin should help pick up the slack.

Late addition to injury report
Porter is questionable for Friday's game against the Bulls due to an illness.
Analysis
It's possible an ailment is spreading around the Cavaliers, as Donovan Mitchell (illness) is also under the weather. Depending upon who ends up being available Friday in the backcourt, Lonzo Ball could be in the streaming mix in shallow leagues and Tyrese Proctor in deeper setups.
