Blatt says "good news" on Shumpert's shoulder. An MRI showed just a bruise. It's painful, but there was no further damage.

Dellavedova had a playoff career high 20 points in 39 minutes in Game 3, only scored 3 points but played 32 minutes and was active on defense. Considering that both are starters, both players being healthy and able to play is huge for a Cavs team that is already down Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love. Game 4 tips off at 9 p.m. on Thursday in Cleveland.
