Cavaliers’ Love out 3-4 weeks with calf injury

NBA

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love will miss at least the next three to four weeks with a calf injury.

Love suffered a calf strain in the preseason, but aggravated the injury in Sunday’s 118-94 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers.

The Cavs said Love will get treatment and rehab the injury, but will not be reassessed until “approximately three to four weeks.”

Love missed the team’s season opener with the injury, played 38 minutes in the Cavs’ second game and just 9 minutes before leaving due to the injury in the third game.

The five-time All-Star is averaging 9.5 points, 6 rebounds and 2.5 assists this season.

Cleveland (3-0) will play the New York Knicks (1-2) on Tuesday night.
