Update on Wallace

Cavaliers forward Ben Wallace left the game in the first quarter with what the team described as dizziness. He did not return.

“I got light headed,” said Wallace. “My head started spinning. There was smoke in the first quarter — you cant play basketball with your head spinning like that.”

Wallace said he would be evaluated tomorrow morning. Cavs coach Mike Brown said he missed his big man.

“Ben is a starter for us,” said Brown. “He has played big in the playoffs so far, so to lose him in playoffs is tough. But that’s not what the problem was here tonight.”
