Cavs list Delonte West as doubtful for opener


Posted Oct 27 2009 4:09PM

CLEVELAND (AP) -- Cavaliers guard Delonte West is doubtful for the season opener against the Boston Celtics.

Cleveland coach Mike Brown said after the team's shootaround that West would likely be inactive for Tuesday night's game.

On Monday, West's wife filed a domestic violence report against him.

West has battled bipolar disorder in the past and has had a turbulent off season. He was arrested on weapons charges near his Maryland home in September. He reported to training camp on time, but did not show for the first four practices and then left the Cavaliers for a week to deal with personal issues.
