The Cleveland Cavaliers are reporting a "level of concern" regarding an injury to guard Sam Merrill. The team has not disclosed the specific nature or severity of the issue, but the phrasing suggests Merrill's availability for upcoming games may be in doubt.
Merrill, who wears number 5, was photographed during pregame warmups ahead of the Cavaliers' matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves at Rocket Arena on October 26, 2026. The team has yet to provide a timetable for his return.
