SALT LAKE CITY -- When the Cleveland Cavaliers open play in Salt Lake City Summer League Monday night, they will be without not one, but two members of their heralded 2019 NBA Draft class.

Kevin Porter Jr., the No. 30 pick who was officially acquired in a deal with the Detroit Pistons, will not play because of a hip flexor injury that has been bothering him since pre-draft workouts, league sources tell cleveland.com.

Porter has been practicing with the summer Cavs in Park City, but with three games in Utah and at least five more in Las Vegas over the next week-plus, the team is being cautious. Porter’s absence will give the Cavaliers a longer look at some of the other invitees, including Canton Charge shooting guard Muhammad-Ali Abdur-Rahkman who played for head coach John Beilein at Michigan, former Jazz player Naz Mitrou-Long and Israeli swingman Yovel Zoosman, among others.

The Cavs will also hold out fifth-overall pick Darius Garland. The centerpiece of Cleveland’s draft haul is healthy following a torn meniscus suffered in the fifth game of his freshman season and proved that to the organization during a private workout a few days before the draft. But, just like with Porter, the Cavs don’t want to push Garland, letting him return slowly while not taking any unnecessary risks.

Tipoff is set for 7 p.m. ET.
