The Cleveland Cavaliers will be without their Big 3 for Saturday's affair at Staples Center.

Cleveland is resting LeBron James, Kyrie Irving, and Kevin Love for the Cavaliers' matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers, head coach Tyronn Lue told reporters prior to the game.

Deron Williams, J.R. Smith, and Channing Frye will start in their absence.

Love hasn't been cleared for back-to-backs after missing 13 games with a left knee injury, while Irving was forced to leave Thursday's contest with left knee tightness.

The Cavaliers will have their work cut out for them, as they has never won a game when all three players sit.
