Collin Sexton is only getting started for the Cleveland Cavaliers.
The recently-turned 22-year-old did miss five games due to a left ankle sprain before returning on Wednesday versus the Brooklyn Nets, but either way, he had been Cleveland’s clear scoring leader with 25.1 points per outing coming into then.
Now, the Cavs have been brutalized by injuries this season, as evidenced by Kevin Love having only been active in one game thus far because of a right calf strain/reaggravation of that.
