Felder cleared from protocol; Shumpert likely Fri.

INDEPENDENCE, Ohio -- The Cleveland Cavaliers could have their backup point guard position shored up as coach Tyronn Lue expects Iman Shumpert and Kay Felder to play Friday after both experienced concussion-like symptoms this week.

Felder was placed in the league's concussion protocol after taking an errant Chris Andersen elbow to the head in practice last week and is now fully cleared. Shumpert hit his head against Kristaps Porzingis' hip late in the Cavs' 117-88 season-opening win over the New York Knicks and had to exit the game.
