Cleveland Cavaliers forward Dean Wade has been ruled out of Wednesday’s game against the Bulls due to illness, according to Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer. This marks Wade’s second consecutive absence from the lineup.
Initially listed as questionable, Wade’s status was downgraded to out as he continues to battle a non-COVID illness. The Cavaliers will now be without his services as they take on the Bulls.
Wade’s absence comes as a setback for the Cavaliers, who will have to make adjustments to their lineup in his absence. The team will look to regroup and compensate for his absence as they aim for a victory over Chicago.
The next opportunity for Wade to return to action will come after the All-Star Break on February 22 when the Cavaliers face off against the Orlando Magic. Until then, Wade will focus on recovering and getting back to full health.
In Wade’s absence, the Cavaliers will rely on other players to step up and fill the void left by his absence. The team will need a collective effort to overcome his absence and continue their push for success in the remainder of the season.
As Wade focuses on his recovery, the Cavaliers will look forward to his return and the impact he brings to the team. In the meantime, they will work together to navigate through his absence and remain competitive on the court.
