Over the years, Kevin Love has had a mental battle when it came to basketball. He was losing his love for the game. The man who was a big part of the Cleveland Cavaliers’ 2016 triumph, however, made his way back. In addition, he even solidified his love when he got married to his wife, Kate Bock. With all his iconic teammates in the venue, LeBron James pinned down an emotional message for the new couple.

Back in 2014, LeBron James made an epic return to his home team the Cavaliers. After winning two titles with the Miami Heat, the King wanted to deliver on his promise. Having a young Kyrie Irving paved the way for sure, but the addition of Kevin Love changed the entire dynamic. He was probably the best power forward at the time. Only two years after the blockbuster trade, Love helped LeBron fulfill his promise in an impossible 3-1 Finals series comeback.

And it became clear with James’ emotional message to Love and his former teammates.
