Andrew Bogut suffers broken leg in Cavaliers debut (Video)
Andrew Bogut’s Cleveland Cavaliers debut went about as poorly as one could imagine.
The recently-signed big man injured his leg in a collision with Miami’s Okaro White early in the second quarter of Monday night’s game between the teams.
Unfortunate.

Bogut was just signed by the Cavaliers after being bought out by the Philadelphia 76ers, to whom he had been traded via Dallas. One complaint the Warriors had about Bogut at the end of his tenure in Golden State was his injury history. Unfortunately the Cavaliers are immediately experiencing that.
