As Kevin Love continues his dominance this season, he is putting his preverbal stamp on the MVP trophy. Love leads the league in rebounds with almost 14 per game and is fourth in points per game with 24.3 and he has recorded a double-double in all but one of the Timberwolves’ 17 games. He has been a one man wreaking crew and will for sure be the most sought after free agent when the season ends. Love represents a player that can do it all as he is extremely proficient in scoring and rebounding, as well as being above average in passing while averaging 4.3 assists per game. He can score in the paint and also step out beyond the arc and knock down a jumper anywhere on the floor. Kevin Love has put in all the work and put up the numbers this season to be named the No. 1 player in the league.
