Love missed the majority of Game 6 and all of Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals after suffering a concussion early on in Game 6. He’ll likely feature fairly early on, but perhaps not in Game 1.
Love won’t be the only key player out of Game 1, but he might be the most important absence for the Finals opener.
