Cleveland Cavaliers fans held their collective breath late in the Game 2 victory over the Indiana Pacers, when Kevin Love left the game due to what seemed to be a potentially serious left thumb injury. Shortly following the game, however, it became clear that Love and the Cavs managed to dodge what would have been a very serious bullet.
After the victory, it was reported that the All-Star big man had suffered nothing more than a jammed thumb and is expected to be ready to go for Friday night’s crucial Game 3.
The initial fears of a serious left thumb injury were party due to the fact that Love had missed six weeks earlier this season due to a left hand fracture.
Love had a strong outing on Wednesday night prior to the injury, and finished the game with 15 points and eight rebounds. Luckily for the Cavs, they’ll be able to expect a similarly solid performance from the talented big man in Game 3.
