Kevin Love: Deemed questionable for Game 1

There hasn’t been any word that Love has been removed from the NBA’s concussion
protocol, but the questionable designation implies that the big man will likely
be subject to some additional tests Thursday before the Cavaliers officially
rule him in or out for the series opener. According to Joe Vardon of
Cleveland.com, head coach Tyronn Lue said that Love would start if he clears the
protocol in time for Game 1, in which case Jeff Green would presumably head back
to the bench. Love, who suffered the head injury five minutes into Game 6 of the
Eastern Conference finals series against the Celtics, ranks second on the Cavs
in scoring this postseason with an average of 13.9 points per game.
