West could return on Tuesday INDEPENDENCE, Ohio Delonte West could return to the Cavaliers' lineup when Cleveland hosts New Jersey on Tuesday. Guard Mo Williams, out with a shoulder injury, says West will play against the Nets, although coach Mike Brown says he hasn't received final clearance. That could come Tuesday morning during shootaround. West has missed the last eight games with a broken left ring finger. He began practicing again last week. Williams is expected back around the beginning of March. The Cavaliers have won 11 straight without their top two point guards.
Cleveland arena removes drinking fountains CLEVELAND The home of the Cleveland Cavaliers says it has removed drinking water fountains to prevent the spread of bacteria and illnesses, such as swine flu. Fans who want a drink of water can get a small cup free at Quicken Loans Arena concession counters or pay $4 for bottled water. Team spokesman Tad Carper says the fountains were removed in November. He says the team takes advice on such health matters from the National Basketball Association and the International Association of Assembly Managers. But officials from both organizations say they are not recommending that drinking fountains be removed.
