The Cleveland Cavaliers concluded the 2024-25 season with an impressive 64-18 record, securing the top seed in the Eastern Conference. This season showcased multiple fantasy stars, with four players finishing in the top 55 and six in the top 130 for per-game value. Evan Mobley emerged not only as the team’s defensive anchor, winning the Defensive Player of the Year at just 23 years old, but also made strides offensively. He averaged 18.5 points, 9.3 rebounds, and 1.2 made three-pointers per game. Meanwhile, Ty Jerome proved vital off the bench, bouncing back from injury to average a career-high 12.5 points. However, Donovan Mitchell's performance fell short of expectations, ranking 30th in per-game value while dealing with reduced playing time.

As the Cavaliers prepare for the 2025-26 season, fantasy managers should keep a close eye on Mobley for early-round consideration. The team’s strategy to deepen their rotation paid off with notable efficiency gains across the board. Look for players like Darius Garland and Jarrett Allen to maintain their solid contributions, while newcomers like De'Andre Hunter and Max Strus aim to carve out more significant roles.
