Smith had previously missed the second half of the Cavs’ Game 2 matchup against the Pacers with a sore left hamstring and was considered questionable up until today for the team’s Game 3 matchup in Indiana.
“I don’t like sitting out,” Smith said Wednesday. “Sat out enough.”
The Cavs will look to take a commanding 3-0 series lead as they face off against the Pacers at 7:00 PM E/T at Bankers Life Fieldhouse.
