Batum (wrist) is considered questionable for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers, Erik Gundersen of The Columbian reports.
Analysis:
Batum has been dealing with a torn ligament in his wrist for more than a month, but he played through it until sitting out Saturday's game against the Wizards. While he's likely dealing with discomfort, which is contributing to his disappointing season, Batum appears determined to play through the pain, and he could return to the lineup Wednesday. If he doesn't play, expect Allen Crabbe to make another start at small forward.
