Iman Shumpert Out; Now What for the Cavs?

The Cleveland Cavaliers just released the Iman Shumpert will have surgery tomorrow and will be out for a long time, via email from Cavs:

Cavaliers guard Iman Shumpert recently suffered a ruptured Extensor Carpi Ulnaris sheath in his right wrist. The extent of the injury was confirmed by MRI at Cleveland Clinic Sports Health yesterday by Dr. Thomas Graham and Dr. Richard Parker. Shumpert will have surgery to repair his wrist Wednesday at Cleveland Clinic. His return to play is currently projected to be 12 to 14 weeks.

That timeline is long.
