Cavaliers guard Dion Waiters left last night’s game vs. the Indiana Pacers at Quicken Loans Arena during the first half with left knee soreness and did not return to play. Waiters was examined at Cleveland Clinic Sports Health today by Cavaliers Head Team Physician Dr. Richard Parker.
The exam, including an MRI, revealed a small, loose cartilage fragment in his left knee.
Waiters will be OUT for approximately one week while he undergoes a period of rest, treatment and additional observation and examination.
Following this period, and based on the continued evaluation of his knee, next steps regarding his treatment and recovery will be established, including the potential for an arthroscopic procedure.
