LeBron James underwent further evaluation at Cleveland Clinic Sports Health last evening by Cavaliers Head Team Physician Dr. Richard Parker and Dr. Mark Schickendantz. He was re-examined, with x-rays and MRI reviewed.

James has a strain of his right elbow and a bone bruise of his olecranon. He will undergo daily treatments and revaluation and a repeat MRI will be performed next week. It is not anticipated that he would miss any playing time.

"The best thing about it is there's no structural damage," James said. "The docs have given me clearance that I can't hurt it worse and I can go out and play. Maybe it's a strain in the muscle or the tendon."

Doc Rivers does not expect the Cleveland superstar to be hampered.

"He's fine," Rivers said. "If he goes three or four games and shoots left-handed only, then I'll believe it's hurting. We'll be ready for the LeBron we've seen all through the playoffs."

James said he will be ready for the Celtics on Saturday.

"I'll be ready for Game 1 and I'll be a productive player."

But he won't take any unnecessary chances.

"If I am limited during the game, then I'll be smart about it," James said. "That's what I was able to do in Game 5. I was very limited in shooting long-range shots, so I started going to the hole in the fourth quarter."
