Love describes the experience as "truly a blessing" and talks about the "bragging rights" that come along with getting the cover for the game. In addition, the player touches upon the transition from college to the NBA, wanting to play for the Wolves, some of his teammates,  and his offseason in general.  
 
 
 
 
Cub Buenning/SLAM Online also talked to Love after the video game honor was announced.
SLAM: Regardless of the legend you
may ultimately leave in the NBA, I know it will be cool to always have
this video game cover to commemorate your year in Westwood.
 
KL: Oh yeah. There’s really nothing
better than to be on the cover of a video game, EA Sports College
Basketball ’09. That’s really the icing on the cake from my whole year
here at UCLA. When I look back, I can say ‘I did this, I did that.’ But
individually as an accolade, being on the cover of a video game what I
did in March Madness and where I have gone this far in my career, is
just really special...
 
 
SLAM: As you get ready to change
your life completely becoming a pro player, what do you think you will
miss most about the college game?
 
KL: Miss most? Everything.
Everything in college was good. It was by far the best year of my life
and I got to meet so many great people here. But the one thing I will
miss most is just traveling with my team. I’ll be missing the coaching
staff and Coach Howland. But also, the teammates and the chemistry that
we had on the floor. To get to play with Russell Westbrook, who was my
roommate on every trip, Darren Collison, Luc, and I also made great
friends with the guy who was the same position as me; there was never
any bad blood there with Lorenzo Mata. All the guys down the line, they
were all good guys. Nobody had any hidden agendas or big heads on their
shoulders.
