It’s true – as Tyronn Lue alluded on Saturday – that none of the Cavaliers regular starters will play in Monday night’s contest in Atlanta – Cleveland’s third preseason game of the fall, with meetings against the Raptors, Bulls and Wizards (next Tuesday in Columbus) scheduled before the Championship banner gets raised on October 25 at The Q.
At Monday morning’s shootaround at Philips Arena, Coach Lue revealed that the starting lineup will consist of Kay Felder, James Jones, Dahntay Jones, Jordan McRae and Cory Jefferson.
And while that doesn’t portend a drama-filled matchup on Monday night, these final games of the preseason will represent some dramatic, possibly life-altering moments for guys fighting for one of the coveted few remaining roster spots.
