Williams (knee) won't be available for Wednesday's regular season finale against the Pistons, Chris Haynes of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Analysis:

Williams traveled to New York on Tuesday for an examination on his ailing left knee and is scheduled to have an appointment Wednesday, which should provide more clarity on the injury. The veteran is expected to rejoin the Cavaliers in time for Wednesday's game, but coach Tyronn Lue already noted that Williams won't dress for the contest. Williams is experiencing inflammation on the cartilage in his kneecap, and it's uncertain if he'll be able to play through the injury during the postseason. The Cavaliers aren't counting on much minutes from Williams anyway as the team's third string point guard, but with him being sidelined Wednesday along with Kyrie Irving (rest), Matthew Dellavedova may be asked to assume heavy minutes as the team's primary floor general.
