Cleveland Cavaliers starting forward Cedi Osman left Wednesday night’s game against the Oklahoma City Thunder with lower back spasms. Early reports indicate that his return to the contest is doubtful.

Entering Wednesday night’s game, Osman had played in all 10 of the Cavaliers’ contests this season.

He’s averaging 12.5 points, 5.4 rebounds and 2.8 assists. He entered this year being in the tough position of taking over the spot that had been held by former Cavs superstar LeBron James.
