In the latest issue of ESPN The Magazine, Cavaliers forward Kevin Love reveals that he lost about 15 pounds after suffering a season-ending shoulder injury during the 2015 NBA Playoffs. Love—who says he has since forgiven Celtics forward Kelly Olynyk for causing the injury with a hard foul—is down to about 238 pounds. According to him, he's not going to lose any more weight during the offseason, but he's going to try to add some new dimensions to his game because of his drastic weight loss.

"I'm not going to go any lower than my weight now," he told ESPN The Mag. "I know that I have to play inside; I have to contend with people who are bigger, faster, stronger than me. But I'm trying to add things to my game. I'm trying to be able to run faster and have fresh legs every day. I'm fit and I'm focused."

He's so "fit" and "focused" that Love agreed to strip down to nothing for The Mag's "Body Issue." You can see his cover photo above. He also took this one to illustrate just how much weight he's lost:
