Cavaliers' Andrew Bogut: Misses shootaround, but expected to dress Monday
Bogut wasn't present for the Cavaliers' morning shootaround due to visa issues, but he's expected to be in uniform for Monday's game against the Heat, Chris Fedor of Cleveland.com reports.
Analysis:
Prior to being waived by the 76ers last week and subsequently signing with the Cavaliers, Bogut was tending to a personal matter abroad, and it appears he has yet to return to Cleveland. The Cavaliers anticipate that Bogut will be able to resolve his immigration situation prior to the 7:00 p.m. ET tip off, but his absence from shootaround could prompt coach Tyronn Lue to limit the 32-year-old's usage off the bench in his team debut Monday. Once Bogut gets acclimated with his new surroundings, he'll likely be in store for a 10-to-20-minute role behind starting center Tristan Thompson.
