Things just keep getting messier for the Cavaliers. Head coach Tyronn Lue left the court during the Cavaliers’ game against the Magic in the middle of the second quarter with an undisclosed illness, according to a report.

It’s unclear what is wrong with Lue at this point. He’s still in the building, but according to Joe Vardon, he won’t return to the court.

With the Cavaliers struggling, Lue’s job security has been in question over the last few weeks. LeBron James was asked about Lue being the team’s coach moving forward last month and did not give the coach a ringing endorsement. However, the Cavaliers’ front office came out and said his job was secure.

As more comes out about Lue’s illness, we’ll update this post.
