Cavaliers' Sam Merrill: No restrictions for Game 1

Merrill (neck) isn't expected to face any restrictions Saturday in Game 1 of the Cavaliers' opening-round series with the Magic, Spencer Davies of SI.com reports.

Merrill sat out the final three games of the regular season due to a neck strain. The 27-year-old is good to go for the start of the Cavaliers' postseason run, but he won't be guaranteed a sizable role in the rotation while Cleveland has all of its key wings available.
