All-Star forward Kevin Love has announced he is re-signing with the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Reports suggest Love has agreed a five-year, $110 million contract extension - and the 26-year-old is eager to lead Cleveland to glory after they lost to the Golden State Warriors in this year's NBA Finals.
In an essay on The Players' Tribune, Love wrote: "I'm going back to Cleveland.
"After Game 1 of the NBA Finals, that’s when it really struck me. Sitting on the sidelines, I never wanted to play in a game more than that one.
"I had dreamed of playing in the NBA Finals and I just wanted to help my guys win. I couldn't have been prouder of them as they poured their blood, sweat and tears onto the court.
"Yeah, of course I've heard the free agency rumors. But at the end of the day, and after meeting with my teammates [it turns out pools are great meeting places] and with the front office, it was clear Cleveland was the place for me.
"We're all on the same page and we're all in. We have unfinished business and now it's time to get back to work."
LeBron James, who opted out of his contract, said he wanted to see how Cleveland handled free agency. So far, the Cavs are off to a good start.
