INDEPENDENCE, Ohio -- Channing Frye did not practice Saturday and will not make his Cavaliers debut against Oklahoma City on Sunday, a team spokesman said.

Frye, 32, who was acquired in a trade Thursday from Orlando, has not yet completed his physical, according to the Cavs spokesman. Cleveland coach Tyronn Lue said the team saw Frye "in passing" Saturday during his physical testing.

The team has until Tuesday to complete its requirements for the trade, in which Cleveland agreed to send Jared Cunningham and a second-round pick to the Magic for Frye.

Orlando can't play or waive Cunningham until Frye officially joins the Cavs.

The Cavs play Oklahoma City on Sunday and then host the Detroit Pistons Monday, so it's possible Frye could make his Cleveland debut then.

Frye missed the entire 2012-13 season due to a heart condition, but played all 82 games the following season. Sources throughout the organization said the Cavs were being extra cautious with Frye, given his medical history, but said no pressing issues had been discovered to this point.

"No concern. No concern at all," Lue said. "We're just being as thorough as we need to be. We have until Tuesday, and that's the doctor's job."

On Friday, Lue said he envisioned Frye and Kevin Love making life difficult for opponents from the perimeter in pick-and-roll situations when LeBron James is the one setting the screen and rolling to the hoop.

If the Cavs find an issue with Frye that causes the trade to be voided, they don't get Anderson Varejao back. Varejao was traded separately to Portland in return for that second-round pick the Cavs packed to Orlando. The Blazers have already waived Varejao.
