LeBron James: 'We missed Kevin Love'

LeBron James has admitted that the Cleveland Cavaliers missed Kevin Love during their defeat to the Chicago Bulls last night.

The forward sat out the 113-98 defeat after suffering an eye injury earlier this week, which left him with blurred vision for 30 minutes.

Love's teammate told ESPN: "We missed him a lot, for sure. He's a big part of our team. Without his ability to shoot the ball, rebound the ball, we were undersized tonight, obviously, versus their length, versus their bigs.

"I think James Jones came in and did a heck of a job in the minutes that he had, but we missed Kevin, for sure."

Love has averaged 17 points per game this season.
