Shaun Livingston (back) played on Monday, scoring four points on 2-of-3 shooting with three rebounds and seven assists in 31 minutes.
Livingston is worth a look as a low-end point guard option in deeper formats, and he'll get a small bump in value for the finale if Kyrie Irving or Dion Waiters get a breather. Apr 15 - 10:03 PM

Shaun Livingston will play on Monday after missing Sunday's game with back spasms.

He should be a decent play as long as his back doesn't act up during the game.

Shaun Livingston (back) is a game-time call on Monday vs. Miami.

Livingston didn't play on Sunday, but he's got a chance to get back on the floor on Monday. He's not a fantasy option with a healthy Kyrie Irving available.

Shaun Livingston (back spasms) will not play against the Sixers on Sunday.

He had some back issues back in December, but at least it's not to his knee that he blew out back in 2007. Livingston doesn't have much fantasy value while Kyrie Irving is healthy.

Shaun Livingston - G - Cavaliers

Shaun Livingston started against the Hawks on Monday, scoring 14 points with five boards, six assists and two steals in 36 minutes.

Kyrie Irving isn't going to play in back-to-back sets and Livingston took advantage tonight. The Cavs have two more back-to-back sets that start on April 9 and 14, so Livingston might have some value as a plug-and-play in two more games this year.

Shaun Livingston - G - Cavaliers

Shaun Livingston scored 11 points but didn't have any rebounds or assists off the Cavs' bench on Sunday.

His run as a fantasy option is over now that Kyrie Irving. He played just 18 minutes and will play less as Irving gets up to speed, so don't be fooled by his double-digit scoring.

Shaun Livingston couldn't get his offensive game going on Friday, shooting 5-of-15 from the field for 10 points with three boards and six assists against Philadelphia.

He didn't have any steals, blocks or threes, so this line hurts for those that started him in deep leagues. Livingston has been solid in March with averages of 10.3 points, 3.8 assists and 1.1 steals, but since he's only attempted four 3-point shots all year, he won't be turning in any eye-catching lines.

Shaun Livingston - G - Cavaliers

Shaun Livingston had 14 points, two assists and two steals in Friday's loss to the Rockets.

In the absence of Kyrie Irving, Dion Waiters and Anderson Varejao, Livingston has become one of the most talented players on the Cavs. Since re-joining the starting lineup six games ago, he's averaging 12.8 points, 4.5 assists and 1.5 steals per night. It's a reasonable expectation going forward.

Shaun Livingston - G - Cavaliers

Shaun Livingston had 14 points, six assists and two steals in Wednesday's tough loss to the Heat.

He's the starter until further notice, and while he won't hit threes, he should be serviceable if you're desperate for a point guard. Kyrie Irving's return this season is iffy, at best.

Shaun Livingston - G - Cavaliers

Shaun Livingston was quiet against the Pacers on Monday, scoring eight points with three boards and two assists in 26 minutes.

He doesn't shoot 3-pointers and isn't very prolific at steals either, so he'll some bad games with his lack of diversity in the stat sheet. Livingston is still worth a look in most leagues.

Shaun Livingston - G - Cavaliers

Byron Scott would like to play Shaun Livingston under 35 minutes per game.

"When I get to the point where ... he's complaining that he's playing too many minutes, then I'll probably bring it down," said Scott. "But I don't think Shaun's going to do that." Livingston won't hit any 3-pointers and he's not a great scorer, but with Kyrie Irving (shoulder) out he should do enough to justify owning in 12-team leagues.

Shaun Livingston - G - Cavaliers

Shaun Livingston was one of five Cavaliers in double-figures on Saturday, scoring a season-high 16 points on 8-of-13 shooting, with three rebounds, five assists and one steal in 33 minutes.

Livingston doesn't have 3-point range and he's not known as much of a scoring threat, but he's now averaging 13.7 points in the past three games. Throw in some rebounds, assists and steals, as well as zero competition for minutes, and Livingston makes a decent low-end fantasy PG as long as Kyrie Irving (shoulder) is on the shelf.

Shaun Livingston - G - Cavaliers

Shaun Livingston scored 13 points on 5-of-11 shooting (no threes) with five rebounds, six assists and three steals in Friday's loss to the Mavs.

Livingston has been a low-end value over the last two weeks in standard leagues, so give him a look if you need a point guard.

Shaun Livingston - G - Cavaliers

Shaun Livingston is not expected to be back with the Cavs next season, according to the Akron-Beacon Journal.

This seems pretty odd with the Cavs not having a backup point guard to Kyrie Irving and how Byron Scott has said repeatedly he's a fan of Livingston's game, so we're taking it with a grain of salt. Livingston has reportedly "made it clear" he'll play for the highest bidder, but a lot can change between now and the offseason.

Shaun Livingston - G - Cavaliers

Shaun Livingston had 12 points, three rebounds, six assists, a steal and a block on 6-of-9 shooting in Tuesday's tough win over the Wizards.

He could be the starting point guard from here on out with Kyrie Irving's shoulder injury leaving his season in doubt, meaning Livingston deserves a close look in most fantasy leagues right now.
