Kevin Love
In his only collegiate season at UCLA, he was named first-team All-American, Pac-10 Freshman of the Year, and Pac-10 Player of the Year; He was a top 10 pick in the 2008 NBA Draft
Born into a basketball family, Kevin Love is the son of former NBA player Stan Love. He was a standout player at Lake Oswego High School in Oregon, where he was ranked as one of the top prospects in the nation. Love played one season of college basketball at UCLA, where he led the Bruins to the Final Four in the 2008 NCAA Tournament. His dominant performance earned him consensus First Team All-American honors and the Pac-12 Player of the Year award. After his freshman season, Love declared for the 2008 NBA Draft, where he was selected fifth overall by the Memphis Grizzlies and immediately traded to the Minnesota Timberwolves.
During his time with the Timberwolves, Love quickly established himself as one of the premier rebounders in the league. In the 2010-11 season, he set a record for the longest streak of consecutive games with double figures in points and rebounds since the ABA-NBA merger. His breakout season earned him the NBA Most Improved Player Award. Despite his individual success, the Timberwolves struggled to make the playoffs, and in 2014, Love was traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers, where he would go on to achieve team success, including four consecutive NBA Finals appearances.
After nine seasons with the Cavaliers, Love joined the Miami Heat in February 2023 following a contract buyout. Despite battling injuries in recent years, Love has continued to contribute as a veteran presence and a key role player. His leadership and experience have been invaluable to the teams he has played for, and he remains a respected figure in the NBA. Love's career is also marked by his advocacy for mental health awareness, making him a role model both on and off the court.
