NBA Rumors: 3 teams who should target Kevin Love if bought out by Cavs
NBA Rumors: 3 teams that would be a good fit for Kevin Love if he gets bought out by the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Heading into the offseason, the expectation is that there could be plenty of player movement around the NBA. One player that would be a hot commodity on the open market is Kevin Love. Though, his avenue to the open market would be a bit complicated.
Love still has two years remaining on his contract with the Cleveland Cavaliers but there are whispers that he could agree to a buyout from the team. That would lead to Love being a free agent.
The hesitation around trading for Love is not surprising. Love still has two big-money years remaining on his contract and not many contenders would be willing to make such a move for a player that may or may not still have plenty left in the tank.
Even though he’s still a good player, I don’t think Love is worth $60 million over the next two seasons. Nevertheless, should Love become available on the open market – if he would agree to a buyout from the Cavs – there should be plenty of teams interested in his services.
If Love does hit the open market as a free agent, here are three teams that would make a lot of sense for Love.
