US EditionCavaliers’ Darius Garland Exits Game in Miami with Toe Injury
Garland, who returned Nov. 5 after offseason toe surgery, left Monday's game against Miami with a left toe injury related to his previous turf toe, Cavaliers said.
- During Monday's game in Miami, Darius Garland, Cleveland Cavaliers point guard, left with a toe injury on the same foot he had last season's turf toe injury.
- Recommended surgery in June followed his postseason struggles after the Indiana Pacers eliminated Cleveland, and Garland dealt with a turf-toe injury at the end of last season that cost him four games.
- After months of rehab, Darius Garland returned on Nov. 5 against the Philadelphia 76ers and averaged 14 points and 6.5 assists in three games this season.

- It was not immediately clear whether this was an aggravation of the June injury, and Garland, a two-time NBA All-Star, faces renewed availability questions for the Cleveland Cavaliers due to recurring toe issues.
