MORE: Hope for Cavs without Kevin Love | Updated NBA mock draft
Love suffered the injury during a tussle with Celtics center Kelly Olynyk.
The team will also be without J.R. Smith, who is serving a two-game suspension for hitting the Celtics’ Jae Crowder in Game 4. Griffin didn’t seem too concerned about how the Cavs will move forward without Love or Smith.
“I don’t expect us to just survive,” he said. “I expect us to thrive.”
LeBron James echoed his GM’s comments regarding Love not returning.
The Cavaliers are awaiting the winner of the Bulls-Bucks matchup. Chicago leads the series 3-2.
