Cleveland Cavaliers Prepare for Pivotal Game 7
Cavs Injury Report Ahead of Critical Matchup
Key Players Deemed Uncertain for Sunday's Contest
CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The Cleveland Cavaliers will host their third Game 7 in franchise history when they welcome the Orlando Magic to Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse on Sunday. With the series tied at 3-3, the game promises to be a thrilling contest.
However, the Cavs will face the challenge of playing without several key players. According to the team's injury report, Dean Wade (knee), Ty Jerome (ankle), and Craig Porter Jr. are all listed as questionable for the game.
The absence of these players could significantly impact the Cavs' performance. Wade has been a valuable contributor off the bench, averaging 4.8 points and 4.4 rebounds per game in the playoffs. Jerome, acquired at the trade deadline, provides depth at point guard and has played well in his limited minutes.
The Magic, on the other hand, are relatively healthy. Forward Jonathan Isaac, who missed the entire 2022-23 season with a knee injury, is doubtful for Game 7 but could still play if necessary.
The Cavs will need to find a way to compensate for their injuries if they want to win Game 7 and advance to the second round of the playoffs. With a sold-out crowd cheering them on, they will be hoping to end their season on a high note.
