OAKLAND, Calif. -- Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love experienced dizziness after returning to play at the start of the second half of Sunday's NBA Finals Game 2 against the Golden State Warriors.

He left the game for good with 9:54 left in the third quarter after the effects of a collision with Warriors forward Harrison Barnes late in the second quarter surfaced.

Love did not exhibit any signs or symptoms prior to the third quarter, according to a team statement.

Love is questionable for Game 3 on Wednesday in Cleveland.
