Starting center Tristan Thompson has been dealing with a torn ligament in his thumb, while Kyrie Irving has been dealing with some pain in his surgically repaired left knee.
In addition, LeBron James is now dealing with a sore calf, while Kevin Love is questionable tonight with an illness.
Without a doubt if this were a playoff game, all four players would likely be suiting up, however with rest being the No. 1 priority, the Cavs have elected to sit out their four starters.
