There was some doubt as to the availability of several players Friday morning before the Cleveland Cavaliers back-to-back weekend at home. Kevin Love had back issues, Jr Smith suffered from the hyperextended knee earlier in the week and LeBron James is always due for playoff rest. After dismantling the shorthanded Miami Heat, the Cavs reinforced their lineup to take on a hungry, competent Charlotte Hornets team tonight. Today after practice, coach Tyronn Lue informed the media that all starters would be available tonight.
