The Cleveland Cavaliers lose Sasha Pavlovic for 6-8 weeks

Blogged under General, Bloglockers, Big Cavaliers News, Injuries, Front Page by alleyoop on Monday 28 January 2008 at 8:43 pm

The Cavs have lost starting shooting guard Sasha Pavlovic for the next 6-8 weeks due to a mid foot sprain. Pavlovic has played in 38 games (35 starts) this season for the Cavaliers and he is averaging 24.5 minutes, 7.3 points, 2.7 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game. He has never found his shooting touch this season either as he’s only hitting 35.1% of his shots from the floor. Daniel Gibson will likely pick up some of Pavlovic’s playing time and that’s a good thing. Gibson has played in 41 games (26 starts) this season and he is averaging 32.6 minutes, 11.9 points, 2.5 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game. Gibson also is a good shooter from anywhere on the court as he is hitting 45.4% of his shots from the floor, 46.8% of his three point attempts and 79.8% of his free throws. Devin Brown could also see a bump in playing time while Pavlovic is out. Brown has played in 39 games (2 starts) this season and he is averaging 20.8 minutes, 6.6 points, 3.1 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game. Brown is only shooting 39.7% from the floor and the Cavs need him to improve on that.
