Kevin Love has expressed interest in teaming up with LeBron James on the Philadelphia 76ers. Currently, the 76ers have filled their roster after signing Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, and they also have two backup centers behind Joel Embiid. Love averaged 6.7 points and 5.8 rebounds for the Utah Jazz last season. His desire to pursue a championship with James is clear, but any move would require adjustments from the Sixers' current roster. Utah is also at roster capacity, complicating potential interest from Love's end.
