Shumpert (shoulder) will play Friday against Toronto, Cavaliers play-by-play announcer Fred McLeod reports.

Analysis:

Shumpert has missed the past three games due to a sprained left shoulder, but the talented perimeter defender will be back in the fold Friday when the Cavaliers face off against one of the better back courts in the league in Toronto. He has come off the bench exclusively this season and will likely do so again Friday, but there's a chance he gets a good chunk of playing time as the Cavaliers try to slow down DeMar DeRozan and Kyle Lowry.
