Love’s personal goals are equally high.
"Individually, I would like to get as many
double-doubles as possible," he said. "I feel like I’m a double-double
guy. I love to rebound. I feel like I take high-percentage shots so I
can put the ball in the basket. I’d also like to make the first
all-rookie team or maybe even rookie of the year, depending on how the
season goes. That all starts with the games we win as a team and how we
do."

…As for the questions about Love’s athleticism, after
what Wittman saw in the Las Vegas summer league, he said it’s not a
concern.

concern.
"He’s really more agile than people think," Wittman
said. "Is he going to jump out of the gym? No. Is he going to outsprint
everybody up and down the floor? No. But other things that go with that
make him an enticing player. He’s a very high basketball IQ guy. You
like playing with guys that know how to play the game, that know how to
read situations and how to read cuts. I think people feed off that. I
think it helps everybody."
