Kevin Love: Cleared to play in Game 1

Love suffered a concussion in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Finals against
the Celtics, which ultimately kept him out of the following contest as well.
However, after going through a controlled practice Thursday, Love has officially
graduated from the league’s concussion protocol and has now been given the go
ahead to take the court. Coach Ty Lue previously stated that if Love ultimately
played, he would immediately jump back into the starting five, so look for the
6-foot-10 big man to reclaim a spot in the top unit. That should send Jeff Green
back to the bench, while Larry Nance is also a candidate to see less time on the
floor. As of now, the Cavaliers aren’t reporting any sort of restrictions on
Love’s playing time.
