The Cleveland Cavaliers have announced that Kevin Love is OUT for the remainder of Game 6 as he undergoes evaluation for a concussion. Allie Clifton of Fox Sports Ohio, who reported the news first, is calling it a precautionary move on the Cavs’ part.
Love finished the game with no points and four rebounds in five minutes of action. The power forward suffered the injury when he was run into by Celtics forward Jayson Tatum, and immediately went down to the ground.
