Kevin Love double-doubles in Cavaliers' season opener
Cleveland Cavaliers center Kevin Love racked up 15 points and 11 rebounds in Tuesday's 102-99 victory over the Boston Celtics.
As the team's starting center, Love was limited to 28 minutes after getting into early foul trouble, but he did come on late. Love ended the game 4-for-9 from the field, 1-for-4 from three and 6-of-7 from the line. Given the foul situation, he probably didn't get as many shots or touches as the Cavaliers would've liked to get him in the first game of the season.
After a 26.2-FanDuel point performance in game number one, Love and the Cavaliers will take on the Milwaukee Bucks on Friday. In the matchup, we project him to bounce back to the tune of 20.2 points, 10.3 rebounds and 39.1 FanDuel points in 35.4 minutes.
