Cavs inching closer to complete with Max Strus' possible return against Hornets

The Cleveland Cavaliers have repeatedly asked players to step up and play beyond their limit. Cleveland is sorely missing the punch they get from Donovan Mitchell, Max Strus and Dean Wade. But, before the Cavs knocked off the Charlotte Hornets at home, Cleveland head coach J.B. Bickerstaff shared optimism with ClutchPoints regarding the team's injured trio.

“We're hopeful,” Bickerstaff told ClutchPoints. “I believe they will all be back in time to play some games, getting the group an opportunity to play some games together. We got some tough road games coming up and I think there'll be great tests for us and just great opportunities for our guys to be back on the floor and get that kind of feeling of playing in an adverse environment.
