LeVert (recently traded) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against Milwaukee.
The 30-year-old was sent to Atlanta in the trade that brought De'Andre Hunter to Cleveland on Thursday, though one day may be too quick of a turnaround for LeVert to make his Hawks debut. LeVert played in three consecutive contests before the trade, following a seven-game absence due to a right wrist sprain, and in that three-game span (one start), he averaged 3.3 points and 2.7 assists in 20.3 minutes per game.

Hawks' Caris LeVert: Traded to Atlanta
Rotowire
The Cavaliers traded LeVert, Georges Niang, three second-round picks and two swaps for De'Andre Hunter on Thursday, ESPN's Shams Charania reports.
LeVert had been in a brutal slump for Cleveland with two scoreless duds in a row. He's had a tough season overall, averaging 10.2 points, 3.7 assists, 2.8 rebounds and 0.9 steals, and his minutes were trending in the wrong direction. LeVert could benefit from a change of scenery, and there are plenty of wing minutes up for grabs on an Atlanta roster that may not be done making moves.

Cavaliers' Caris LeVert: Reaches double figures in return
Rotowire
LeVert (wrist) closed with 10 points (4-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt), five assists and one steal across 23 minutes during Sunday's 144-101 victory over the Mavericks.
After missing seven straight games due to a right wrist sprain, LeVert was cleared to return Sunday and ended up finishing as one of eight Cavaliers with at least 10 points. Due to the blowout nature of the contest, no Cavaliers player logged more than 27 minutes, so LeVert could see his playing time drop down a bit in more competitive contests where head coach Kenny Atkinson may choose to lean more heavily on his starters.
