Wednesday, Feb. 11
ESPN's Dave McMenamin reported the news of Love's eye injury on Wednesday. He also noted that Love will travel to Chicago with the team to be evaluated before Thursday's game against the Bulls.
Chris Haynes of the Northeast Ohio Media Group had Love's thoughts on the injury, saying, "I got hit pretty hard there by Chalmers. It was blurry for about 20-30 minutes but I was able to regain my vision. I feel fine."
Love dealt with a minor back issue earlier in the 2014-15 season, but otherwise has been rather healthy in his maiden campaign away from the Minnesota Timberwolves.
