Injuries have challenged the top-ranked Cavaliers, but could this hypothetical three-team trade bolster their frontcourt?

Okoro (shoulder) didn't travel with the Cavaliers for their two-game road trip and will remain out Wednesday versus the Heat, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

The Cleveland Cavaliers have dealt with a handful of injuries over their past few games. Both Caris LeVert (wrist injury) and Isaac Okoro (shoulder injury) have not played since Jan. 18, and Evan Mobley recently returned from a calf injury that caused him to miss four games.

The Cleveland Cavaliers are expected to be without two of their best defenders for the foreseeable future.Forward Dean Wade and wing Isaac Okoro are dealing with injuries that could keep them out past the All-Star break.

The Cavaliers face tough times with injuries to their rotation, but hopeful updates suggest a potential return for key players soon.

Following the Donovan Mitchell trade before the 2022-23 season, the Cavaliers didn't have much draft capital. The next unprotected first-rounder they could offer in a trade is their 2031 pick. Because of this, Jaylon Tyson, Cleveland's first-round pick from the 2024 draft, could be used as the key piece in a blockbuster trade.

The Cavaliers, already dealing with recent injuries, will be without Dean Wade for at least the next two weeks. Wade sustained a right knee injury during the Cavs ' Jan. 24 game in Philadelphia and then missed the next two games. An MRI administered Monday revealed a right knee bone bruise, according to a release from the team.

Okoro's next chance to play will come against the Suns on Monday.

The Cavs lost three consecutive games for the first time this season. But they feel going through this adversity is a positive.

The Cleveland Cavaliers have largely avoided any major injuries up to this point in the season. However, the Wine and Gold are now dealing with a pair of critical player injuries, and some of them have already been ruled out for the Cavaliers' matchup against the Houston Rockets on Wednesday.
