LeBron James: Played through hand injury

The injury was reportedly sustained after James punched a black board in the
locker room following the Cavaliers’ Game 1 loss. He subsequently underwent two
MRIs and had been wearing a soft cast behind closed doors. The All Star kept the
issue quiet in order to keep the Warriors from knowing. The injury did not do
much to slow him down, as he finished the series with averages of 34.0 points,
8.5 boards, 10.0 assists, 1.3 steals, 1.0 blocks, and 1.5 triples across 44.7
minutes per game. He will now have all offseason to recover from a one of the
heaviest workloads a player has seen during the postseason grind in recent
memory.
