The Cleveland Cavaliers are already shorthanded at point guard without George Hill, but on Thursday afternoon, news surfaced that the team would also be without guard Jose Calderon, who was experiencing hamstring soreness, per Dave McMenamin of ESPN.
The 13-year NBA veteran has filled in nicely for the Cavs this season whether it’s been Isaiah Thomas, Derrick Rose, or George Hill missing time. In the team’s last game against the Toronto Raptors, Calderon came up big with 19 points, four rebounds, four assists, and two steals.
