Minnesota Timberwolves and Kevin Love express mutual interest in reunion

The Minnesota Timberwolves hold an open roster spot following the release of John Konchar to accommodate the signing of Jonathan Kuminga. Reports suggest both the team and veteran forward Kevin Love have interest in a potential return to the franchise. Love, who played his first six seasons in Minnesota, remains an unrestricted free agent after his most recent stint with the Utah Jazz. While team insider Jon Krawczynski notes that a reunion is possible, he characterizes the actual likelihood of the signing as low. The front office is currently evaluating several candidates to fill the remaining vacancy with a veteran who can provide locker room leadership.
