Kevin Love (Utah Jazz)
September 2025

Five-time All-Star Kevin Love will join Utah Jazz’s training camp instead of agreeing to a buyout, extending his career into an 18th season despite the team’s rebuilding status. At 37, Love is expected to play a depth role, similar to recent years with Cleveland and Miami. Though speculation swirled about a buyout to join a contender, Jazz management confirmed he remains part of their plans for now. His decorated résumé includes an NBA title and five All-Star selections.
