Dellavedova has been a central part of Cleveland's rotation so far this season. Through three games, he is playing 19.7 minutes per game while averaging 2.7 points and shooting 30 percent from the field. Last year as a rookie, Dellavedova appeared in 72 games and found a role as a energetic three-and-d type next to Kyrie Irving.

It should be interesting to see how Cavs coach David Blatt adjusts his rotation without Dellavedova available. So far, when the Cavs have gone small in the fourth quarter, Dellavedova has replaced Dion Waiters at shooting guard. It's possibly that Waiters takes the majority of Dellavedova's minutes, but Waiters is already playing over 30 minutes per game.
