Cavaliers’ Kevin Love returns after missing opener with calf injury
Love got injured in Cleveland’s first preseason game
Former NBA Champion Kevin Love will be back in the starting lineup for the Cleveland Cavaliers on Saturday night against the Pistons after the star forward missed the season opener with a calf injury.
Love had been sidelined since the team’s first exhibition game against Indiana on Dec. 12, when he got kicked in the calf. Love said his leg was swollen from his knee to Achilles tendon.
He wanted to play in Wednesday’s game against Charlotte, but the team decided that two more days of rest would be beneficial.
