The Cleveland Cavaliers reportedly believe that Kevin Love’s absence will last only one game.
Love has not been cleared yet as he continues to go through the NBA’s concussion protocol, but the belief within the Cavaliers organization is that he will be able to play in Game 4.
Kevin Love still must be re-evaluated again tomorrow, but the feeling privately within Cavs is that he will be cleared to play in Game 4.

It remains to be seen whether the Cavs slot Love right back into the lineup. The starting five that included Richard Jefferson was excellent on Wednesday night, and we’ll see how coach Tyronn Lue elects to proceed after a blowout victory.
Love was reportedly upset to be held out of Game 3, and one prominent analyst took his side. It’ll be a relief for all involved if and when he’s cleared for Game 4.
