While there were rumors suggesting Kevin Love was going to visit the Los Angeles Lakers as a free agent, it appears the All-Star forward has scraped such an idea.
Why is that, you ask?
Because Kevin Love is going to re-sign with the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Yes Cavs fans, Love is coming back and joining LeBron James and company as he announced on the Players Tribune.
I’m going back to Cleveland.
After Game 1 of the NBA Finals, that’s when it really struck me. Sitting on the sidelines, I never wanted to play in a game more than that one. I had dreamed of playing in the NBA Finals and I just wanted to help my guys win. I couldn’t have been prouder of them as they poured their blood, sweat and tears onto the court.
Yeah, of course I’ve heard the free agency rumors. But at the end of the day, and after meeting with my teammates (it turns out pools are great meeting places) and with the front office, it was clear Cleveland was the place for me. We’re all on the same page and we’re all in. We have unfinished business and now it’s time to get back to work.
So there you have it. Kevin Love re-signs with Cavs.
