Pelle Larsson and Miami Heat are eliminated from the NBA playoffs.
The team was pressured to win the fourth eighth-final at home against favored Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday night Swedish time. However, it was a clear loss, 83–138, and Cleveland is moving on to the quarterfinals with a clear 4–0 in best of seven matches.
24-year-old Larsson, a Swedish rookie sensation in the North American league this season, scored twelve points in the match.
This summer, guard Larsson hopes to be part of the Swedish national team that will play its first European Championship final in twelve years.
