Cavaliers' J.R. Smith: Questionable for Wednesday
Smith (ankle) is considered questionable for Wednesday's game against the Pacers.
Analysis:
Smith has missed the last two games with a lingering ankle injury, but he could be nearing a return for Wednesday's matchup with the Pacers. Coach Tyronn Lue indicated Tuesday that Smith likely could've played in the Cavaliers' previous outing, so it wouldn't be surprising if he was ultimately back on the court Wednesday. That said, if he does end up being held out for further rest, Richard Jefferson and Iman Shumpert would likely get additional minutes again.
