The Cavaliers backup point guard situation took another hit in the third quarter of Tuesday night’s opener, when Iman Shumpert left the game with concussion-like symptoms after a collision with New York Knicks power forward/center Kristaps Porzingis.
Head coach Tyronn Lue was uncertain of Shumpert’s status after the game, but the shooting guard tweeted two messages on Wednesday morning that indicates he is confident he’ll be ready to play on Friday night in Toronto.
Shumpert joked about the incident with Porzingis and appears to be in good spirits.
