The feisty Australian, who has done a brilliant job in place
of injured All-Star Kyrie Irving, required an IV that prevented
him from meeting with the media after his 20-point performance
helped Cleveland take a 2-1 lead in the best-of-seven series.
Dellavedova will continue receiving treatment during the night
at a Cleveland hospital and his status will be updated on
Wednesday afternoon, the Cavaliers said in a statement.
The undrafted second-year guard was been forced into the role as
the team's No. 2 scorer and defender when Irving went down with
a season-ending knee injury late in the opening game of the
Finals.
Game Four of the series is Thursday in Cleveland.
