Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love has been announced as questionable for Game 3 of the NBA Finals against the Golden State Warriors.
The hits just keep on coming for the Cleveland Cavaliers. After being blown out in Game 2 of the NBA Finals against the Golden State Warriors, the Cavaliers are a team that is on the verge of imploding on the big stage. With Game 3 in Cleveland on Wednesday night, the Cavaliers have put themselves in a situation where they have to win or they can pretty much kiss their hopes at an NBA Finals goodbye, if they haven’t already.

Even worse for the Cavaliers ahead of Game 3, they could very well be without forward Kevin Love. During Game 2, Love took an elbow to the back of the head and would eventually leave the game to enter concussion protocol.
According to the Cavaliers via Chris Mannix, Love has been listed as questionable to play in Game 3 on Wednesday night.

For the Cavaliers, that would be a big loss on the floor, even if Love was struggling in the series to begin with. Once again, injuries are really hitting the Cavaliers when they least need them. However, it’s a bit different this time, as Golden State has proven thus far that they are the far superior team even with the Cavaliers at full strength.
If Love can’t go on Wednesday night, the Cavaliers could be put just one game away from having their season ended.
