Joe Tait out of hospital
(November 16, 2010) Longtime Cleveland Cavaliers radio play-by-play broadcaster Joe Tait has been released from the hospital.
Tait, who was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame this summer, had been in the Cleveland Clinic after being admitted on Nov. 1 with a blood clot in his lung. The team said he is progressing after having a procedure to stop the blood clots. Tait had been scheduled to undergo heart double bypass surgery and an aortic valve replacement. The Cavaliers said the operation likely will be rescheduled for early January. Tait planned to retire after this season. He has been the Cavs' radio announcer for all but two years since the team entered the NBA as an expansion team in 1970. Read more at
