Cavaliers' J.R. Smith (hamstring) hopes to suit up for Game 3
Cleveland Cavaliers shooting guard J.R. Smith said that he will suit up for Game 3 against the Indiana Pacers on Thursday as long as the team will let him.
What It Means:
Smith was held out of the second half of Monday's win with the injury, though it didn't seem to be anything serious. "I wanted to play. They didn't want me to play," Smith said. He added about Thursday's game, "If they let me play, I'll play." It seems like a safe bet that he will be back in the lineup for Game 3.
Monday's game was not a good one for Smith, and his -14.4 nERD was the worst mark among Cavs players, per numberFire Live.
