The next morning, Wade felt soreness and popped up on the injury report, eventually getting ruled out for the matchup against the Rockets. That lingering issue, initially characterized as “soreness,” is now being termed a “knee sprain” — the kind of injury that could keep him out for the remainder of the regular season, sources tell cleveland.com. A return is not imminent.

#Cavs Dean Wade isn’t with the team on this road trip. The medical staff has tried various forms of treatment to get him back. But there is no timeline. While everyone is hopeful he can return for the playoffs, that is not a given
