Hopefully, things are getting back to normal for Larry Hughes.

For the first time since game one of the series, Hughes was in attendance when his Cleveland Cavaliers lost to the Detroit Pistons in game six of the Eastern Conference semi-finals.

Hughes was excused by the team to return home to St. Louis where he was mourning the death of his younger brother Justin Hughes. The younger Hughes died after a lifelong battle with heart problems. He had a heart transplant in 1997 but his body started to reject the heart last year. Hughes died at the age of 20.

The Cavaliers didn’t play Hughes in Friday’s loss. Game seven is Sunday in Detroit.
