Cavaliers guard Delonte West is ready to play in Saturday's Game 6 against the Magic despite an ugly bruise on the right side of his hip.

West missed the final moments of Cleveland's 112-102 win over Orlando in Game 5 because of a hip pointer.

"I took a shot; I don't know when it happened because there's so much going on out there," said West.

"My body stopped acting right at one point in the game. Any movement on my right side was affecting the area, and my body just wanted to stop running. So I had to make the decision to see what was going on and come out of the game."

He received treatment on Friday, and benefited from the fact that the Cavaliers didn't practice.

"It still hurts a little, but I'm moving around just fine," West said.
