Kevin Wesley Love (born September 7, 1988) is an American professional basketball player for the Cleveland Cavaliers of the National Basketball Association (NBA). He is a three-time All-Star and holds the longest streak for consecutive games recording double figures in points and rebounds since the ABA–NBA merger.

A top ranked prospect out of Lake Oswego High School in Oregon, Love played one season of college basketball for the UCLA Bruins and led the team to a Final Four appearance in the 2008 NCAA Tournament. Love was named a consensus First Team All-American and was voted the player of the year in the Pac-12 Conference. He elected to forego his remaining three years of college eligibility and entered the 2008 NBA draft. He was taken fifth overall by the Memphis Grizzlies, and was traded to the Minnesota Timberwolves on draft night for the third overall selection, O. J. Mayo, in an eight-player deal. Love was traded to the Cavaliers in 2014.

Racing career

Born in Des Moines, Iowa, Love raced late models in North Carolina. Love was a two-time champion in the Coca-Cola Cup Late Model Stock Car Championship, a member of the NASCAR Weekly Racing Series.

Love first raced in the Hooters Pro Cup Series in 2002, driving the No. 60 Chevrolet, finishing 12th in his debut at Jennerstown Speedway. He made two more starts in 2002, finishing seventh and 30th at Lonesome Pine Speedway and Concord Speedway, respectively, the latter ending with a DNF due to a mechanical failure. Love returned to the series in 2003 at Concord, but finished 28th due to another mechanical failure.

In 2004, Love made his NASCAR Truck Series debut in the No. 67 Fiddleback Ford in the Kroger 250 at Martinsville Speedway, starting 30th and finishing 27th at the short track, two laps down. Love failed to qualify for the UAW/GM Ohio 250 at Mansfield Motorsports Park after qualifying was rained out, and the No. 67 had no owners' points, and Todd Bodine took over the No. 67 for the Infineon 200 at Lowe's Motor Speedway, though Love returned for his next start at Dover. He finished 24th after crashing on the frontstretch on lap 152. He ran with Fiddleback again at Memphis, finishing 21st. After a 24th at the Milwaukee Mile, Love finished a career-best 11th at Kansas Speedway. However, this would be his final start in the No. 67.
