November 19, 2012Kyrie Irving receives tweets of support from Kevin Love and…Nick Cannon?
November 20, 2012From the Cavaliers-
Cavaliers Guard Kyrie Irving received an MRI and CT Scan of his contused left index finger (3rd quarter of Saturday night’s game at The Q vs. Dallas) today at Cleveland Clinic Sports Health. The results of the MRI and CT Scan revealed a hairline/non-displaced fracture in the finger. The injury will be treated with taping and a splint. He is currently projected to be Out for the next four weeks while the fracture heals, and is scheduled to be re-evaluated in two weeks. His status will be updated as appropriate at that point.
Cavaliers guard Daniel Gibson has a contused right elbow experienced in Saturday’s game at The Q vs. Dallas. He continued to play and be available for play during that game. He traveled with the team to Philadelphia, and continued to receive treatment immediately prior to the Sunday game vs. the Sixers and during the first quarter in the locker room. He returned to the bench for the remainder of the game, but did not play. Gibson underwent an x-ray and MRI today at Cleveland Clinic Sports Health, both of which were negative. He is cleared to play.
Cavaliers forward/center Tristan Thompson experienced a nasal contusion during the second quarter of the game in Philadelphia last night. An x-ray at the Cleveland Clinic today revealed a nasal fracture. He will have a protective mask fitted and is projected to be ready to play in Wednesday’s game at The Q also vs. the Sixers.
Ugh.

The bench is going to get even worse. They might not score at all.
It’s official: Kyrie is kind of fragile.
Waiters is about to get quite a baptism, and if Boobie’s annual injury occurs before Kyrie gets back this could get real ugly real quick.
Exactly. We may actually witness a shutout.
On the bright side, the Cavs will have a top 3 pick and can build out the core.
So 10-72?
was kyrie ever healthy for a full season of basketball in high school? Because this is at least 3 straight years where he can’t stay on the court.
We are going nowhere if our best player is constantly hurt
Will someone please get the Cavs some milk and a Vit D supplement?
First Zeller…now TT and Ky?
Damn…there is a good chance we won’t win a single game over the next month. Plus, with the increased load on Andy now, I bet HE is going to suffer an injury within the next 2 weeks.
Soo… Maybe the aging fragile Uncle Drew is the real person and he dresses up like Kyrie half the year?
sigh. why Kyrie why. we have such high hopes for you. please don’t be the Cavs Courtney Brown.
It’s never too early for draft talk…right?!
The tank is full speed ahead!
Any decent FA PGs? Cavs have salary cap room, willing to pay you double your worth. Any takers?
Need to have more milk in the locker room
TRADE ANDY NOW!
Before he inevitably gets hurt too.
One of the best things that could have happened to the Cavs during the LeBron era would have been for him to miss an entire season due to injury and finish dead last and get a #1 draft pick (if the balls fell our way). That would have solved that whole “running mate” thing.
I prefer to look at this as a good thing. As a way of forcing Losing upon us.
He is always hurt but at least they’re not the same injury over and over a la a knee problem.
