Mo Williams to miss 4-6 weeks with shoulder sprain

by John Bena (aka CavsBlogger) on Jan 21, 2010 4:36 PM CST in Cleveland Cavaliers in the News

Cavaliers guard Mo Williams suffered a left shoulder sprain during Tuesday night's game versus Toronto at Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland. He was examined by Cavaliers Head Team Physician Dr. Richard Parker and the Cleveland Clinic's Dr. Mark Schickendantz. Williams also received a MRI at Cleveland Clinic Sports Health, the results of which confirmed the sprain.

Williams is currently projected to be out for the next four to six weeks. His status will be updated as appropriate.

Things could have easily been worse for Williams, whose injury bore a eery resemblance to the injury Dywane Wade suffered a couple years ago.

The question now becomes whether or not Danny Ferry brings in another PG to take Williams place - names like Tyronn Lue and Juan Dixon are out there, but obviously the loss of Williams will hurt the Cavs.

Am hopeful Moon comes back soon. Put West in as starter, let Moon be the reserve catalyst.

DWest @ PG (sharing ball handling with LeBron as per usual)…with Boobie as the backup…AP @ SG with Jawad as the backup…and the rotation remains the same from there…this should give Darnell some PT…and Noon is back in a couple weeks too…after this week, the only teams of consequence they play before the All-Star break are OKC and Memphis…and only two road games
