Delly out of hospital, ready to go for Game 4


CLEVELAND (AP) — Matthew Dellavedova walked into the interview room double-fisted — with two cups of water.

After being hospitalized with dehydration after exhausting himself during Game 3 of the NBA Finals, the hustling guard was upright – a good sign for the Cavaliers.

Dellavedova was released from the Cleveland Clinic today and said he's ready to play Thursday night against the Golden State Warriors, who have spent the past three games being bothered by the pesky Australian.

Dellavedova cramped up after Tuesday night's game, and after receiving IV treatment, he was taken to the hospital for more procedures. He scored 20 points – converting a clutch three-point play in the fourth quarter – and spent 38 exhausting minutes diving on the floor, into the stands and doing all he could to stop MVP Stephen Curry.

"I've felt like I've pushed the limit a few times, but that's probably the tiredest I've been," Dellavedova said, describing how he felt afer the game. "I'm feeling good now, though, so it's good we don't have to play back-to-backs."
