Sources: Cleveland All-Star Kevin Love will miss Game 7 against Boston in East Finals on Sunday and is in the NBA’s concussion protocol.

First off, we hope Kevin Love is ok. He has a history of concussions. He missed a game in the 2016 Finals due to a concussion and also was out after a concussion in March, according to ESPN.
But… this is a HUGE development that favors the Celtics.
Yes, the Cavaliers proved in Game 6 they can win without Love. But now there’s even more pressure on the Cavaliers supporting players in Game 7.
Boston opened a 2-point favorite. I’ll be curious to see how much the line moves.
PS: Love’s injury also gives LeBron a free pass if the Cavs lose.
