VanVleet receives stitches after Livingston elbow

Toronto Raptors guard Fred VanVleet exited Game 4 of the NBA Finals on Friday after taking an elbow from Golden State Warriors guard Shaun Livingston with 9:35 left in the fourth quarter.

Livingston was coming down after a layup attempt when his elbow connected with VanVleet's face, leaving the third year guard bloodied.

VanVleet needed seven stitches to repair the cut under his eye, but he did not suffer a concussion. He's available to return.
