Top Kevin Love News

  • Heat's Kevin Love: Draws starting nod sans Adebayo

    Love will start in Monday's game against the Clippers, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

    Love will make his first appearance with the Heat since a Dec. 29 win over Houston, joining the starting lineup Monday for the injured Bam Adebayo (back). Over five games with Miami's first unit in 2024-25, Love is averaging 7.4 points, 5.4 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 1.4 threes in 12.2 minutes, so the veteran big man figures to offer limited fantasy upside against the Clippers. Rookie first-rounder Kel'el Ware should play a prominent role off the bench.

  • Heat's Kevin Love: Won't play against Utah

    Love (personal) is not with the Heat for Thursday's game versus the Jazz, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Love has been downgraded from doubtful to out due to personal reasons. While the veteran big man has fallen out of Miami's rotation, his next chance to suit up is Saturday's matchup with Portland.

  • Heat's Kevin Love: Doubtful for Thursday

    Love (personal) has been ruled doubtful for Thursday's matchup with the Jazz, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Despite being healthy and available, Love hasn't played in the last five games. He hasn't seen the floor in nine out of the last 10 games, but in his lone appearance, he started and posted five points, six rebounds and one assist in 14 minutes.

  • Heat's Kevin Love: Back to bench

    Love isn't part of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against New Orleans.

    Love had been out of the rotation for multiple games before jumping into the starting lineup Sunday. Despite his starting status, he played just 14 minutes. Love will yield to Haywood Highsmith at the power forward position Wednesday.

  • Heat's Kevin Love: Limited run in start Sunday

    Love racked up five points (1-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds and one assist over 14 minutes during Sunday's 104-100 win over the Rockets.

    After being a healthy scratch for Miami's past three games, Love made his fifth start of the season Sunday but offered very little production in the box score over 14 minutes. Love is now averaging 7.4 points, 5.4 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 1.4 threes in 12.2 minutes in five games as a starter this season. The veteran big man's best fantasy days appear to be very much behind him during his 17th season, as Love has yet to eclipse 18 minutes played in a single game in 16 appearances during 2024-25, so fantasy managers can likely find better options on waiver wires in most leagues.

  • Heat's Kevin Love: Starting Sunday

    Love is in the Heat's starting lineup against the Rockets on Sunday, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

    Love has been a healthy scratch in each of Miami's last three games, but he will start Sunday for the fifth time this season. Love is averaging 6.0 points, 4.4 rebounds and 1.2 assists over 11.3 minutes per game across 15 outings (including four starts).

  • Heat's Kevin Love: Cleared to play

    Love (personal) will be available for Monday's game against the Nets.

    Love was previously listed as probable. The veteran forward has averaged 4.2 points and 2.4 rebounds across 8.6 minutes per contest over his last five outings.

  • Heat's Kevin Love: Probable for Monday

    Love (personal) is probable for Monday's matchup against the Nets, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Love will likely suit up Monday after he was held out of Saturday's loss to the Magic due to personal reasons. The veteran forward has seen a reduced role with Miami this season, and in his last five outings, he has averaged 4.2 points and 2.4 rebounds across 8.6 minutes per contest.

  • Heat's Kevin Love: Unavailable vs. Magic

    Love has been rueld out for Saturday's game against Orlando due to personal reasons, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.

    Love has held a minor role within Miami's rotation, so there won't be many minutes up for grabs Saturday in his absence. His next chance to return will arrive Monday against the Nets.

  • Heat's Kevin Love: Minor role continues

    Love had four points (2-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt), five rebounds and one assist in 12 minutes during Monday's 125-124 overtime loss to the Pistons.

    Since missing a Dec. 2 loss to Boston due to a back issue, Love has appeared in five straight games. However, he's played double-digit minutes three times during that stretch and scored in double figures only twice. Across 14 appearances this season (four starts), the veteran big man has averaged 11.8 minutes per game.

  • Heat's Kevin Love: Good to go Wednesday

    Love (back) will play Wednesday versus the Lakers, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Love ascended to probable Wednesday morning, and he will officially suit up Wednesday night. The 36-year-old has averaged 5.4 points and 5.8 rebounds despite shooting just 25.0 percent from the field across his last five contests.

  • Heat's Kevin Love: Upgraded to probable

    Love (back spasms) has been upgraded to probable for Wednesday's game against the Lakers.

    Love was probable for Monday's game against Boston before he was ultimately ruled out, so it's not a guarantee that he will suit up. If he does play, he may be limited to minutes in the lower teens.

  • Heat's Kevin Love: Questionable for Wednesday

    Love (back) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Lakers, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.

    Love has missed two of Miami's past four games due to a back issue and could remain sidelined Wednesday. Even if available, the veteran figures to have a limited role, as he's averaged 12.3 minutes per game across his last nine appearances (four starts).

  • Heat's Kevin Love: Probable for Monday

    Love (back spasms) is probable for Monday's game against Boston.

  • Heat's Kevin Love: Downgraded to out

    Love (back) will not play Monday against Boston.

  • Heat's Kevin Love: Will play Friday

    Love (back) is available for Friday's game against the Raptors.

    Love missed Wednesday's win over the Hornets due to back spasms, but he'll be available off the bench in this one. His return shouldn't generate a big impact in fantasy formats, however, as he's averaged a mere 12.6 minutes per game across seven outings off the bench this season.

  • Heat's Kevin Love: Iffy for Friday

    Love (back) is questionable for Friday's game against the Raptors.

    Love was sidelined for Wednesday's win over the Hornets due to back spasms that cropped up Tuesday against the Bucks. If the veteran is sidelined again, Pelle Larsson and Kel'el Ware are candidates for a few extra minutes.
