Kevin Love could not stop vomiting on Sunday, but unlike so many others doing the same, it doesn’t appear the Cleveland Cavaliers forward’s ailment resulted from excessive partying on New Year’s Eve.
Following Monday’s win over the New Orleans Pelicans — a game in which Love managed to notch a double-double in 24 minutes — Cavs coach Tyronn Lue revealed to reporters the three-time All-Star lost 10 pounds in the previous two days from a bout with food poisoning from some bad sea bass.
Ty Lue says Kevin Love ate some bad sea bass on the trip back from CHA, causing him to lose 10 lbs from food poisoning in the last two days
On the morning after a New Year’s Eve victory against the Hornets in Charlotte, Lue received a phone call from Cavaliers trainer Stephen Spiro, who told the coach Love “had lost 10 pounds and he was throwing up and whatever else I can’t say,” according to reports from Cleveland.
