Cavaliers Coach Tyronn Lue Being Treated For Anxiety

Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Tyronn Lue says he is being treated for anxiety.

Lue stepped away from coaching the team in March due to health reasons, saying he had chest pains and was not getting sleep.

The 41–year–old Lue missed nine games to address his health problems. Cleveland went 8–1 while Lue was gone, but admitted he came back too soon from his leave of absence.

"I'm glad it wasn't anything serious," Lue told ESPN. "Just anxiety and the medication I'm on is great. No more chest pains so everything's been great.
