Hornets' Dennis Schroder: Questionable for Friday
Rotowire
Schroder (foot) is questionable for Friday's game against the Wizards.
The journeyman floor general is in jeopardy of missing the first leg of this back-to-back set. With Coby White still nursing a hamstring strain, the Hornets would be down to rookie first-rounder Christian Anderson as their lone true point guard if Schroder winds up sitting out.

Hornets' Dennis Schroder: Adds 14 points in loss
Rotowire
Schroder supplied 14 points (6-10 FG, 2-3 3Pt), five assists and four rebounds across 34 minutes in Wednesday's 97-89 loss to the Pistons.
Schroder was productive on the offensive end Wednesday, finishing as Charlotte's second-leading scorer. The veteran floor general also led the Hornets in assists and has dished out at least five dimes in three consecutive contests. He should continue to see increased burn for as long as Coby White (calf) is out.

Hornets' Dennis Schroder: Scores 25 points with six boards
Rotowire
Schroder supplied 25 points (8-17 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 6-6 FT), six rebounds and four assists across 38 minutes during Saturday's 115-110 victory over the Heat.
Schroder got off to a hot start in this one, pouring in 17 points on nine shots through the first half of action, but he cooled off after halftime. Still, this was a solid bounce-back performance following Friday's four-point, 1-for-5 shooting disaster, and he finished with a plus-5 differential in the five-point win. As long as Coby White (calf) is out, Schroder should be able to maintain some low-end fantasy value as Charlotte's starting point guard.

Hornets' Dennis Schroder: Effective as starter
Rotowire
Schroder finished Wednesday's 110-103 victory over the Nets with 19 points (7-13 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds and six assists in 35 minutes.
Starting in place of the injured Coby White (calf), Schroder enjoyed a productive showing at point guard in his season debut. The journeyman floor general should be able to provide streaming value in most fantasy leagues until White is ready to return to action.

Hornets' Dennis Schroder: Quiet in starting role
Rotowire
Schroder amassed three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt), four assists and three rebounds in 17 minutes during Sunday's 105-90 preseason win over the Bucks.
Schroder was given the starting nod, although he failed to make the most of his opportunity. Charlotte is dealing with multiple injuries to its backcourt, which could open the door for Schroder to play a meaningful role come opening night. While this, theoretically, puts him on the fantasy radar, experienced fantasy managers are well aware of who Schroder is as a player. Unless you are desperate for assists late in drafts, there are likely to be more appealing options available to you.

Hornets' Dennis Schroder: Starting versus Brooklyn
Rotowire
Schroder will start in Tuesday's preseason game against the Nets.
Schroder will roll with the first five in Tuesday's meeting against his former team. The veteran most recently appeared in 30 regular-season games for Cleveland in 2025-26, averaging 8.2 points, 2.3 rebounds and 4.3 assists over 24.2 minutes per contest.

Hornets' Dennis Schroder: Leads way for Germany on Sunday
Rotowire
Schroder registered 18 points (5-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 6-7 FT), two rebounds, five assists and one steal in 31 minutes during Germany's 96-94 win over Poland in Sunday's FIBA World Cup qualifier.
Schroder led the team in both points and dimes during Sunday's exhibition. The journeyman guard's next stop in 2026-27 takes him to Charlotte after averaging 10.8 points, 4.9 assists and 2.7 rebounds in 24.2 minutes per game across 70 regular-season appearances between the Cavaliers and Kings in 2025-26. He offers the rebuilding Hornets a veteran presence off the bench behind Coby White.

Hornets' Dennis Schroder: Strong effort for Germany
Rotowire
Schroder recorded 23 points (7-11 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 7-7 FT), one rebound, six assists and two steals in 26 minutes during Germany's 99-83 win over the Netherlands in Thursday's FIBA World Cup qualifier.
Schroder paced Germany in scoring and continued his strong summer ahead of his first season in Charlotte. The 32-year-old was acquired from Cleveland earlier this month after averaging 10.8 points, 2.7 rebounds and 4.9 assists in 24.2 minutes across 70 regular-season appearances last season. With LaMelo Ball traded to Minnesota and Tre Mann subsequently sent to Washington, Charlotte's backcourt has undergone a significant overhaul, though the presence of Coby White figures to keep Schroder in a reserve role. The veteran should nevertheless have a path to consistent minutes as one of the Hornets' primary ball handlers off the bench.

Cavaliers' Dennis Schroder: Heading to Charlotte
Rotowire
The Cavaliers traded Schroder and cash considerations to the Hornets on Friday in exchange for Tre Mann, per Shams Charania of ESPN.
The two sides are effectively swapping backcourt depth with the move. Schroder averaged 10.8 points, 4.9 assists and 2.7 rebounds in 24.2 minutes per game across 70 regular-season appearances between the Cavaliers and Kings in 2025-26, and he gives the rebuilding Hornets a veteran presence as a backup point guard behind Coby White.

Rotowire
Schroder (illness) finished with 20 points (5-11 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 7-8 FT), nine assists, three rebounds and two steals in 28 minutes during Germany's 92-86 win over Israel on Friday.
Schroder came down with an illness to close the postseason with the Cavaliers, but he's returned to play in FIBA action this summer. The veteran guard is set to reprise his role as Cleveland's top backup point guard in 2026-27, having averaged 10.8 points, 4.9 assists and 2.7 rebounds in 24.2 minutes across 70 regular-season games for the Cavs and Kings in 2025-26.

Cavaliers' Dennis Schroder: Out for Game 4
Rotowire
Schroder (illness) has been ruled out for Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Knicks on Monday, independent journalist Tom Withers reports.
Schroder was added to the injury report hours before tipoff due to an illness, and he's since been listed as out. He's averaged 15.0 minutes through the first three games of the series, so Craig Porter and Keon Ellis could be asked to fill that void Monday in Schroder's absence.

Cavaliers' Dennis Schroder: Late addition to injury report
Rotowire
Schroder (illness) has been downgraded to questionable for Monday's Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Knicks.
Schroder is under the weather and may sit out Monday's do-or-die matchup. If the veteran point guard is unable to suit up, Sam Merrill, Max Strus and Keon Ellis would all be candidates to pick up a few extra minutes.

Cavaliers' Dennis Schroder: Does little off bench in Game 6
Rotowire
Schroder recorded zero points (0-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds and three assists in 15 minutes during Friday's 115-94 loss to the Pistons in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.
Friday marked the first time that Schroder failed to score in this year's playoffs, and he has reached double-digit scoring just twice across 13 postseason games. He's averaging 6.3 points per game while shooting 39.7 percent from the field this postseason, and the Cavaliers will need more out of the veteran point guard in Game 7 on Sunday.

Cavaliers' Dennis Schroder: Shooting woes in victory
Rotowire
Schroder closed with two points (1-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt), one rebound and one assist across 14 minutes during Sunday's 114-102 victory over the Raptors in Game 7 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Schroder played no more than 16 minutes for the sixth time in the past seven games, continuing to serve as little more than a space filler when either James Harden or Donovan Mitchell are off the court. Outside of a 19-point performance in Game 5, Schroder offered very little in terms of tangible production in the opening round. Across his seven first-round appearances, he averaged 7.7 points and 1.4 assists.

Cavaliers' Dennis Schroder: Barely sees floor
Rotowire
Schroder recorded three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt) and one rebound across five minutes during Thursday's 126-104 loss to the Raptors in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Schroder was used sparingly, logging just five minutes Thursday. Although he has been a part of the rotation on most nights since arriving in Cleveland, it's fair to say that Schroder's impact has been limited. Barring a reversal of fortunes, don't expect to see too much of Schroder outside of lopsided results.

Cavaliers' Dennis Schroder: Not listed on injury report
Rotowire
Schroder (rest) isn't listed on the injury report for Saturday's Game 1 against the Raptors.
Schroder will return to action for the start of the playoffs after sitting out Cleveland's regular-season finale. The veteran point guard averaged 10.4 points, 5.4 assists and 2.4 rebounds in 20.0 minutes per contest across five regular-season outings (one start) in April.

Cavaliers' Dennis Schroder: Won't play Sunday
Rotowire
Schroder (rest) is out for Sunday's game against the Wizards.
The 32-year-old guard will skip Cleveland's regular-season finale, but he'll be back for the playoffs. James Harden (rest) and Donovan Mitchell (ankle) will also sit out Sunday's game, so Tyrese Proctor and Craig Porter will likely see significant minutes.

Cavaliers' Dennis Schroder: Back to bench role
Rotowire
Schroder is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Hawks, Serena Winters of FanDuel Sports Network Ohio reports.
Schroder produced 22 points (8-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds and 11 assists across 29 minutes during Monday's 142-126 win over the Grizzlies, but he'll return to the bench role now that both Donovan Mitchell (ankle) and James Harden (personal) are available. Schroder is averaging 7.6 points, 2.2 rebounds and 4.0 assists per game in his last five outings off the bench, so his fantasy appeal drops considerably if he doesn't start.
