Kevin Love eyes a fresh start with the Los Angeles Lakers as he targets a return to the big-market spotlight
Kevin Love is reportedly joining the open market (Image via Instagram / @kevinlove) Kevin Love , a former five-time NBA All-Star, may be joining a big-market team in the upcoming season. NBA source Jake Fischer claimed that the basketball player reportedly wants to play in a glamorous market the following season, and his top choices are New York and Los Angeles. The insider also said that the player's buyout with the Utah Jazz is still pending, in large part because buyouts usually don't happen until a player has a known future destination. Players won't forfeit guaranteed money without a safe landing team. Veteran forward Kevin Love could reunite with LeBron James as he eyes a fresh start in a big-market city During his most recent Bleacher Report livestream on July 24, NBA insider Jake Fischer provided important details regarding Kevin Love's potential signing with the Los Angeles Lakers. He described the slow-moving offseason market in depth and emphasized the elements influencing the player's next course of action. As per Jake Fischer: 'So with Kevin Love, to my understanding, he really only wants to be in the big glamour markets. I do think it would mostly be something along the lines of Kevin Love going to a New York or a Los Angeles type of situation. So, we'll see if that can materialize for him.' He further said: "I do think it would mostly be something along the lines of Kevin Love going to a New York or a Los Angeles type of situation. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Washington week is here - Watch live tennis from the US capital all week Tennis TV Watch Now Undo So, we'll see if that can materialize for him." Kevin Love would reportedly love to land in big markets like New York or Los Angeles, according to Fischer. In this sense, the L.A. Lakers , who recently signed Marcus Smart and other important players, are a top choice. Although there have been no formal announcements, Jake Fischer claimed that fans and insiders have been speculating about Kevin Love joining the team. He further said that a lot of buyouts this summer had a similar trend, with players delaying the procedure until their future team was verified. He used the current cases of Deandre Ayton and Bradley Beal as examples. Kevin Love might join the L.A. Lakers (Image via Instagram / @kevinlove) Kevin Love, who was dealt to the Utah Jazz this summer in the Norman Powell-to-Miami transaction, is currently still bound by a one-year, $4 million contract with the team. Additionally, his position with the Miami Heat declined even more during the previous season, averaging only 5.3 points and 4.1 rebounds in around 10 minutes of play. Even so, he may still be a vital experienced addition to any club in the running. He might even get back together with his old colleague LeBron James , with whom he won the 2016 NBA Championship.

Warriors' Draymond Green voices support for Kevin Love's veiled callout
The post Warriors' Draymond Green voices support for Kevin Love's veiled callout appeared first on ClutchPoints. Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green does two things very well: 1. Defend and 2. Talk. Green is known for his outspokenness. He has never blurted out an opinion he didn't like. He never shies away from speaking his mind, even if it's about a sensitive issue or criticizing an opposing player. On Thursday, he chimed in on a recent remark of Utah Jazz forward Kevin Love, who said on an Instagram Story: 'So many lames are loudest in the room. And the least accomplished.' While it's unclear who the 36-year-old Love was pertaining to, it's clear that the 35-year-old Green agreed with him. 'It's a crazy thing,' wrote the Warriors veteran on his Instagram Story, while reposting Love's quote. Green has been criticized throughout his career because of his in-your-face attitude. Even though he's an accomplished player on the court, helping the Warriors to four championships and being one of the top defenders in history, he's also notorious for his shenanigans. The video of him punching former teammate Jordan Poole will never be forgotten. He has also been in numerous beefs with fellow players, most notably with Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert. Green, a former Defensive Player of the Year, has acknowledged his faults and vowed to work on them, including undergoing therapy sessions. Warriors coach Steve Kerr has acknowledged Green as the heartbeat of the team over the years. Love, meanwhile, is in his final chapter with the Jazz, although there have been rumors that he will be bought out or waived. He has also been one of the more vocal players in the NBA, especially in advocating for mental health. In March, he called out ESPN host Stephen A. Smith following his much-ballyhooed back-and-forth with Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James. Love and James won a championship together with the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2016 and have maintained a deep relationship.

‘I just broke down': Kevin Love recounts emotional Tristan Thompson hug during playoffs

'I just kind of approached him and wanted a hug. I missed him in general. Every time that we see each other, a lot of memories come up, both good and, I shouldn't say bad, just some heavy [things] after everything that we had gone through, but I just broke down.' Report: Larry Nance Jr. is coming back to Cleveland The five-time NBA All-Star and dad of two went on to explain he considers Thompson family. 'He had lost his mother and had lost a parent, so he could empathize,' Kevin said in the podcast. 'He had known what I was going through. It was the first real time after the fact where I just let it go, and he was there for me. It's who we are. We show up for each other.' Advertisement The 36-year-old, whose Kevin Love Fund focuses on mental health, said he wants others to know it's OK to be vulnerable, even around other men. 'I'm an unfinished product,' he said. 'That's the beauty of basketball, too. You can wake up every day and and get better, and that's how I'm approaching my mind, my body and my soul.' While the Cavaliers did win the series against the Heat, they would soon fall to the Indiana Pacers in Round 2 of the playoffs. They too are an unfinished product. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
