Iman Shumpert: Gone! Thank God!

Am I recalling incorrectly that he was still playing on it for a while after rolling it?

Seems very precautionary to me. Probably just very inflamed initially.

You would be correct.

I feel like the Cavs might just roll with Korver, McRae, and Liggins and get to the break.

But if there was a perfect time for a 10 day contract, it would be now. 5 games in the next week and we don't have many bodies left.

Just sign Lance already

Good that the X-Rays were negative.... will see how bad the ankle injury is.

Keeping weight off an ankle after a sprain is always good, and helps the healing process for both mild and severe ankle sprains.

The walking boot makes just as much sense if we thought he was questionable for the next game, as it does if we thought he was out 8 weeks with a high ankle sprain.

Will have to wait and see what they say tomorrow.

Does anyone know when we may get an update on Shump?

Unsure. Cavs were not expected to practice today, so we may not hear until shootaround on Weds or just before the game. And sometimes they delay MRIs or further examination until the swelling has gone down.

To quote Ross from Season 2 Friends.

"Out tonight? When was he in tonight?"

Already ruled out for tomorrow. View: https://twitter.com/CavsJoeG/status/829359565946884096

I believe Vardon also said "Looks better though..." Can't link the tweet right now.

I saw somewhere that he was out on the court taking shots (non-contact) during the warm up today....

Update?

Update?

He ded.








Seriously though, sounds like he could have played this game but they held him out as a precaution and plan to have him back for the next game.
