Bulls' Pau Gasol A Gametime Decision For Game 5
(AP) Bulls big man Pau Gasol is a game-time decision with a strained left hamstring for Game 5 in Cleveland on Tuesday night. He sat out Game 4, and coach Tom Thibodeau said the team will wait to see how he feels following warmups before making a decision.
Gasol suffered the injury in Game 3 last Friday.
On Cleveland's side, LeBron James says he hasn't yet tested his sprained left ankle.
James had his ankle wrapped at the team's morning shootaround on Tuesday. He got hurt in the third quarter of Sunday's game when he stepped on one of Derrick Rose's feet on a drive to the basket. James stayed in the game and dropped a buzzer-beating jumper to give Cleveland an 86-84 win.
Cavaliers All-Star guard Kyrie Irving will be limited by a sprained right foot and tendinitis in his left knee. James said Irving is "hampered a lot" but he anticipates "he'll give us what he has."
