Kevin Love was a guest on “Late Night with Seth Meyers” last week. Among several topics discussed in the interview (including the ESPN Body Issue and NBA fashion) Love talked about his return to the court.
While he was cautious about setting a strict deadline, Love did seem optimistic about returning soon, and being ready for opening night. He had this to say, transcribed by the International Business Times:
I feel great. I actually spent three weeks in Park City, Utah at the Olympic training facility there, rehabbed my shoulder, got in great shape and I feel great. I’m probably about a month, month and a half away. I don’t want to set an immediate deadline now, but I really feel good.
That timetable would put Love right in the mix of opening night, October 27th, to rejoin the Cavaliers. After suffering the injury to his shoulder in the first round of the playoffs last season and seeing the team make the Finals regardless, Love must be feeling anxious to get back on the court and help lead the team to its first championship. That return could happen quite soon.
