Porter (ankle) has been ruled out for Game 2 of the opening-round series against the Magic on Monday.

Cavaliers' Craig Porter: Ruled out for Saturday
Porter (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's Game 1 against the Magic.
Porter sprained his left ankle during Sunday's regular-season finale against the Hornets and will be sidelined to begin the playoffs. It's unclear when Porter will return, but once he's healthy, he could struggle to find playing time as part of a strong bench unit consisting of Caris LeVert, Sam Merrill and Isaac Okoro.

Cavaliers' Craig Porter: Exits due to injury
Porter has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against Charlotte after suffering an apparent left ankle sprain in the first quarter, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
With Darius Garland (back) sitting out the regular-season finale, Porter drew the start but was limited to just 10 minutes of court time before exiting with the injury. He totaled two points (1-2 FG), three rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block before departing. Fedor notes that Porter wasn't putting any weight on his injured leg upon exiting the court, so the rookie's availability for the start of the Cavaliers' postseason run could be in question.

With Darius Garland (back), Donovan Mitchell (knee) and Caris LeVert (knee) out, Porter is set for his sixth start of the season, with his prior contests on the first unit yielding 11.4 points, 6.2 rebounds, 7.4 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.4 blocks in 31.6 minutes per game. Porter's rookie year has been a ringing success after a five-year collegiate tenure.

Cavaliers' Craig Porter: Plays in garbage time in return
Porter (illness) played the final 1:33 of Saturday's 116-97 loss to the Lakers and didn't record any statistics.
Porter had missed the Cavaliers' previous four games with an illness before being cleared to play shortly before the opening tip. He didn't see the court until the outcome was already in hand, and the rookie will likely continue to find himself out of the rotation on a regular basis while each of the Cavaliers' top three guards (Donovan Mitchell, Darius Garland and Caris LeVert) are available.

Porter (illness) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game in Phoenix.

Porter ended with 13 points (5-11 FG, 3-4 3Pt), two rebounds and four assists over 25 minutes during Sunday's 120-101 loss to the Nets.
Porter led all bench players in Sunday's contest in scoring while connecting on a team-high-tying trio of threes. Porter set a season-high mark in threes made, now having scored 13 or more points in six games during his rookie campaign.
