Top Kevin Love News

  • Heat's Kevin Love: Iffy for Friday

    Love (personal) has been listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Hawks, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Love has missed the last 13 games due to personal reasons. Despite the long absence, the veteran big man has a chance to play Friday in the Play-In Game in Atlanta. The one-time NBA champion had a rough regular season, averaging career-low numbers across the board with 5.3 points, 4.1 rebounds and 1.0 assists per game throughout 23 games.

  • Heat's Kevin Love: Questionable for Play-In Game

    Love (personal) is questionable for Wednesday's Play-In Game against the Bulls, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

    The Heat are listing the veteran big man, who missed the final 12 games of the regular season due to a personal matter, as questionable due to return-to-competition conditioning. If Nikola Jovic (hand) and Love are both sidelined against Chicago, Miami would lean on Bam Adebayo and Kel'el Ware to dominate the center minutes.

    It'll be a fourth absence in a row for the veteran big man, who sees his next chance to rejoin the team arrive Thursday against the Grizzlies. With Nikola Jovic (hand) still on the shelf against the Celtics, the Heat will lean on Kel'el Ware and Bam Adebayo for the center minutes once again.

    Love (personal) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Wizards, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.

  • Heat's Kevin Love: Back in rotation Friday

    Love ended with no counting stats over six minutes during Friday's 102-98 loss to the Rockets.

    Love played six minutes off the bench, suiting up for the first time in the past eight games. The veteran has played a total of just seven games this calendar year, scoring 27 total points. Now in the twilight of his career, it would appear Love's days as a useful fantasy contributor are over.

  • Heat's Kevin Love: Coming off bench Saturday

    Love is not in the Heat's starting lineup against the Bulls on Saturday.

    Love will retreat to the bench Saturday due to the return of Kel'el Ware (knee). Love started in the Heat's last three games and averaged 6.0 points, 5.7 rebounds and 1.0 assists over 12.7 minutes per game.

  • Heat's Kevin Love: Solid all-around performance

    Love racked up 10 points (3-8 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal over 16 minutes during Wednesday's 112-107 loss to the Cavaliers.

    Love started for a second consecutive game with Kel'el Ware (knee) out, but the veteran big man made the most of his minutes and filled the stat sheet admirably. This was the first time Love scored in double digits since Dec. 7, when he posted 11 points in a win over the Suns, and he should remain in the starting lineup as long as Ware remains out.

  • Heat's Kevin Love: Cracks rotation with Ware out

    Love tallied two points (1-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt), nine rebounds and one assist in 12 minutes off the bench in Monday's 106-90 win over the Wizards.

    After stepping away from the team shortly before the All-Star break, Love returned from personal leave in the middle of last week, but he didn't appear in any of the Heat's ensuing three games leading up to Monday. Even when available this season, Love has typically found himself outside of the rotation, but he moved into the starting five against the Wizards while Kel'el Ware (knee) was sidelined. Ware will remain out again Wednesday in Cleveland, so Love should stick in the rotation for at least one more game, even if he isn't deployed as a starter.

  • Heat's Kevin Love: Starting Monday vs. Washington

    Love is in the Heat's starting lineup against the Wizards on Monday.

    Love has been sidelined for the past 10 games, with part of those absences being due to personal reasons. However, he will enter the starting five for Miami on Monday due to the absences of Kel'el Ware (knee), Jaime Jaquez (ankle), Andrew Wiggins (ankle) and Nikola Jovic (hand). It'll be Love's first start since Dec. 18, 2023, though he shouldn't be expected to play heavy minutes Monday despite the Heat's lack of frontcourt depth.

  • Heat's Kevin Love: Will return against Atlanta

    Love (personal) will return to the floor for Miami in Wednesday's game against the Hawks, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.
