Kevin Love: Status for Game 1 uncertain

The Cavaliers will presumably wait until early Thursday to see if Love can pass
through all phases of the protocol and suit up for the series opener, but at
this time, it appears likely the 29-year-old will miss his third consecutive
contest. While Love was unavailable for Game 7 of the Cavaliers’ Eastern
Conference finals series against the Celtics, Jeff Green entered the starting
five and came up big with 19 points (7-14 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 3-4 FT), eight rebounds,
one assist, one block and no turnovers in 42 minutes.
