Tyson will start Wednesday's game against the Knicks.
With Darius Garland (foot) De'Andre Hunter (knee) and Max Strus (foot) sidelined to start the season, Tyson and Sam Merrill will start alongside Donovan Mitchell, Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen. Tyson was a training camp standout and could carve out a regular rotation role even when the Cavaliers are at full strength.
