Darius Garland, star guard for the Cleveland Cavaliers, is considered questionable for the Eastern Conference semifinal opener against the Indiana Pacers due to a sprained left big toe. He missed the last two games against the Miami Heat and has struggled with this injury, which might persist throughout the playoffs. While Coach Kenny Atkinson expressed hope given Garland's shooting performance, he remains cautious. The decision regarding Garland's play will come close to game time, with contingency plans in place for either Sam Merrill or Isaac Okoro to fill his spot.
If Garland is unable to play, Sam Merrill or Isaac Okoro would step in, with Merrill already starting the past two games.
Coach Kenny Atkinson stated that Garland's injury could be a lingering issue throughout the playoffs, indicating the severity of a sprained toe.
