PREVIEW: Cavs end homestand with showdown against Jazz

3. Kevin Love in the paint

Without Gobert, one of the NBA’s best defenders, Utah’s presence in the paint is severely limited. That should be great news for Kevin Love, who yes, has held his own against some of the best bigs in the league at the 5 position this year.

Regardless, Saturday night should provide him even more opportunities to take advantages of mismatches both down low and on the wings. Love has recorded 19 double-doubles this season, and should have his 20th in sight. In 26 career games against Utah, Love is averaging a double-double with 16.7 points and 11.1 boards.
