The Cleveland Cavaliers will once again be shorthanded in their final game before the All-Star break. Cleveland will be without Isaac Okoro (shoulder) and Dean Wade (knee) for the contest, but they could also be down the services of Max Strus (ankle) and Ty Jerome (calf) as well. Both Strus and Jerome are questionable for Wednesday’s game against the Toronto Raptors.
Jerome is a new addition to the injury report. The loss of Caris LeVert in the Hunter trade means that more of a playmaking burden is on Jerome. He’s shown this season that he can handle the increased responsibilities.
Craig Porter Jr. would likey see an increased role if Jerome is unable to go. Jerome is averaging 11.4 points and 3.4 assists per game on 51.6% shooting from the floor and 42.7% shooting from beyond the arc.
