And then there was one in the Kevin Love sweepstakes. With the Chicago Bulls' "pessimistic" about outbidding their competition and the Golden State Warriors' unwillingness to include Klay Thompson in any deal involving the 25-year-old big man, the Minnesota Timberwolves are engaged in trade talks regarding Love with no other NBA team but the Cleveland Cavaliers. Sources have gone as far as to say that Love pairing up with LeBron James next season is "inevitable."
The Cavaliers will need to wait until Aug. 23 to finalize any deal for Love involving Andrew Wiggins. In the meantime, the Cavs and T'Wolves will hammer out the trade details which could include Wiggins, 2013 No. 1 overall pick Anthony Bennett, a future first-rounder and maybe a third team and/or additional players.
With Love-to-Cleveland increasingly becoming a foregone conclusion, let's see how LeBron is taking the news.
