CLEVELANDURBANNEWS.COM-CLEVELAND,Ohio-Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Tyronn Lue is stepping down temporarily, beginning with tonight's game against the Milwaukee Bucks, franchise officials announced Monday, his health condition purportedly at issue, and his health ailment a mystery.

"After many conversations with our doctors and Koby [Altman] and much thought given to what is best for the team and my health, I need to step back from coaching for the time being and focus on trying to establish a stronger and healthier foundation from which to coach for the rest of the season," Lue said in a press statement.


Black elected officials of Cleveland were supportive of the coach, as were fans in general.

Bill Patmon, a Cleveland Democrat
"Cleveland will miss one of its best assets in Tyronn Lue," said state Rep Bill Patmon (D-10), a Cleveland Democrat and former city councilman. "We wish him the best and hope to see him again as a head coach in Cleveland."

Larry Drew, the team's chief assistant, will step up in Lue's place, for now.

Lue, 40 and Black, was hired as an associate coach in 2014 and was promoted to head coach mid season 2015-2016, the year.


In 2016, he led the Cavaliers to their first NBA title championship in a contentious series with the Golden State Warriors.

The Cavs lost the championship title to the Warriors last year and have been struggling this season, accumulating a 40-29 win-loss season record to date, and slipping from last season's first place ranking in the Eastern Conference to third place.

Lue missed the second half of Saturday's win over the  Bulls, as he did after halftime relative to the game last month against Orlando Magic. And he missed the Dec. 21 game against the Bulls in its entirety.

Chief and unfair Cuyahoga County Judge John Russo loses authority-Part 2 of a multi-part series on Cuyahoga County public corruption: New Ohio law on seeking possible removal of a municipal court judge in a case for bias or conflict via the filing of an affidavit of prejudice takes authority to decide from chief Cuyahoga County Presiding Judge John Russo, other chief common pleas judges in Ohio, and hands it to the chief justice of the Ohio Supreme Court, who also determines affidavits of prejudice filed against common pleas, probate, juvenile, domestic relations, and state appellate court judges....Most affidavits of prejudice are denied regardless of the merits and some judges complained of will retaliate, data show... Community activists, led by Cleveland activist Kathy Wray Coleman of the Imperial Women Coalition, lobbied the Cleveland NAACP for support and asked state legislators via state Rep Bill Patmon (D-10) of Cleveland to change the law but wanted a panel of judges and others to decide when a judge in Ohio is disqualified from hearing a case for bias or conflict....Coleman says she has since been further harassed by Chief Cuyahoga County Judge John Russo, who is White and leads a racist and sexist common pleas court fueled with corruption, malicious prosecutions, excessive criminal bonds, ineffective assistance of counsel to poor and Black defendants, and the mass incarceration of the Black community....By www.clevelandurbannews.com and www.kathywraycolemanonlinenewsblog.com, Ohio's most read digital Black newspapers....This is part 2 of a multi-part series on Cuyahoga County public corruption
