As the Cleveland Cavaliers continue to battle health issues in an attempt to ready their top-five for the playoff run, they received a couple pieces of good news on Tuesday.  For one, LeBron James is coming back on Friday, and those who began to whisper conspiracies of panic - like maybe LeBron is more hurt than they're letting on -- they now have reason for silence if they didn't before.

James will be back on Friday when the Cavaliers take the court versus Philly, and its possible that Antawn Jamison will be as well.  It's also possible he won't be though, being currently listed as day-to-day, like we all are.  After leaving Monday's game in the third quarter due to a knee injury, an MRI on that knee Tuesday indicated nothing of a major concern according to Brian Windhorst, and that's good news as the newest Cavalier continues to find his way in Cleveland.  If I had to guess, I'd imagine he'll sit on Friday as a precaution, but will be back for the next one.  Speaking of back for the next one, Mo Williams has struggled mightily since returning from his shoulder injury over the last couple weeks, but he did turn in a solid effort on Monday, albeit sans defense.  It was a step in the right direction for Mo though, and hopefully he can build on that momentum on Friday.  Oh and Shaq's still out, but you knew that already.
