Cleveland Cavaliers PF/C Kevin Love has been ruled out for rest on the second of a back-to-back Tuesday vs. the Los Angeles Clippers.
Kevin Love is out (rest) on the second game of a back-to-back against the Clippers tonight. Ante Zizic is also listed as out.

Larry Nance Jr. is listed as probable on the Cavs injury report.
Well, my Cavaliers at +15 pick goes out the window, but at least we know well ahead of time. Nance has missed the past six games due to a knee injury, and will likely take Love’s spot in the starting lineup alongside Tristan Thompson.
With Zizic and Love out, Thompson is a strong GPP play on DraftKings. The Clippers — if anything — lack depth in the frontcourt. I’d also continue to ride Darius Garland, who would be more involved on offense with Collin Sexton with Love resting.
