Strus? In the closing lineup? Already?
His second game back following an extended layoff — the result of late-summer foot surgery that cost him for the first 67 games? While on a minute restriction? On a night where he had two airballs and wasn’t playing nearly as well as Sunday’s debut?
Yes, Strus. “I have such a comfort level with him,” Cavs coach Kenny Atkinson said following the win. “I could see it going any way with him.
Maybe starting lineup. Maybe sixth man. We will see how that plays out.
But it’s hard not to finish with the guy because he is such a clutch player. We’ll see where it ends up. He has a way of imposing his will and makes you put him in the lineup.
