Kevin Love: Re-Signing With Cavs

Love announced Wednesday via the Players' Tribune that he will re-sign with Cleveland.

Analysis:

Love's camp maintained all along that he would be back in Cleveland next season, and while most of the media remained skeptical, Love quieted the doubters Wednesday by issuing a brief statement via the Players' Tribune. The forward, who missed most of the playoffs with a shoulder injury, is expected to sign a five-year max deal that will pay him roughly $110 million. With LeBron James expected to sign a short-term max deal and Tristan Thompson rumored to be returning on a contract in the neighborhood of $80 million, the Cavs figure to be well into the luxury tax next season.
