Catches fire against WAS
Merrill generated 32 points (11-12 FG, 9-10 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block across 25 minutes of Wednesday's 138-113 win over the Wizards.
Analyse
Merrill set a career high in points and surpassed his previous season high by 10 points. He tied his career high in three-point makes as well. Merrill isn't a high-usage player, but he has the ability to drain three-pointers on any given night. Through 31 appearances this season, Merrill is averaging 13.6 points, 2.3 rebounds and 2.3 assists across 25.4 minutes.

Sees dip during Harden's debut
Merrill closed Saturday's 132-126 victory over the Kings with two points (0-6 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound and two assists in 24 minutes.
Analyse
Although Merrill's shot was off, his low total could be a sign of things to come for the sixth-year pro, who seems less comfortable at the wing. While the Cavs possess a strong rotation, Evan Mobley's absence has required more interior support from Jaylon Tyson, who should end up as the top option at the position. Dean Wade (ankle) is probably a better answer right now, and the team may go in that direction when Wade returns. Merrill's fortunes will diminish even further when Mobley rejoins the rotation.
