Cavs Rumors: Darius Garland on Uncertain Timeline to Return from Back Injury

Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Darius Garland, who was already ruled out for Thursday's game against the Detroit Pistons, doesn't have a firm timeline for his return from a lingering back injury.

The Cavaliers announced on Thursday that Garland will undergo treatment to address lower back soreness and "his return to basketball activities will be updated as appropriate." The Athletic's Joe Vardon reported that Garland is dealing with a muscle issue that requires extended rest.

The 22-year-old floor general is in the midst of a breakout year and earned his first trip to the All-Star Game.
