Sucks for him and the Cavs. Silver lining is he should be back at some point this season. Idk how bad the tear is but I'd probably opt for surgery, there could be an 8 week wait and see approach, I suppose.

Sucks for him, but for the Cavs, they aren't going to miss him much and they are about to find that out.

Generally, torn meniscus is about a 4-6 week recovery, so he could be back around Christmas.

Well, that's kind of what we get to see.

Do the Cavs need Collin's scoring and attitude or are they better off without his ball-stopping and tunnel vision?

They are playing well with Mobley looking like ROY in a great class

Garland sneakily playing way better than Sexton

Cavs will need to make a decision on Sexton this summer. He's solid, but IMO replaceable too. He's a scorer - not necessarily efficiently, and he can't hit the 3. Scoring points is something you need to do, so while most people will cry efficiency, I think you still need a Sexton around on your team to get a bucket. The intangibles are good too - he plays hard on D and has a winning mentality

He's like a better Derozan (at the same age) but needs to get better every season like Demar did

Cleveland fans - what's the game plan for this season now? Rehab Markannen's value & give reps to Mobley? I don't see much of a point in Rubio playing a ton anymore, and I would be cautious with Jarret Allen's minutes/games played

Full steam ahead. Maybe trade both Sexton and Lauri. Top 6 seed is still in play.

He should sit out until he's completely healthy. No reason to risk it when he doesn't have a long term deal. I think Ayton is out injured also after he didn't get extended.

mobley already proved collin is useless. you dont need a zach lavine impersonator piling loss for 8 yrs. idc if the guy becomes all nba later. hes a career loser. use sextons max space and create 2 other trading every contract for 30 yr old all stars you can reach top 5 status back to lebron glory days. mobley plus 3 all stars is the blueprint for altman.

Really enjoy watching Sexton. This stinks. The Cavs are my 2nd fave team to watch this year, partly because of Sexton.
