Love, a five-time All-Star, signed with the Heat in February 2023 after becoming a free agent mid-season, and re-signed with the team last July. The 35-year-old big man averaged 8.8 points, 6.1 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 55 games off the bench with Miami.
After six seasons with the Minnesota Timberwolves, Love spent more than eight seasons with the Cleveland Cavaliers, where he was instrumental in the team’s NBA championship in 2016. Love will be entering his 17th season with the league next year.
