The Cleveland Cavaliers held a team meeting before Monday's practice with several players challenging Kevin Love on the legitimacy of his illness that led him to leave Saturday's loss to the Thunder early and also miss Sunday's practice.

Multiple players were pushing for the Cavaliers to hold Love accountable for leaving the game early and also missing practice.

The meeting only calmed down when Love spoke to those gathered and explained himself.

Tyronn Lue and Kobe Altman were present for the meeting.

The Cavaliers were largely accepting of Love's explanation and the takeaway is that it could have a positive impact.
