Ignore his worst category (scoring) and he's worth -2.74.
The boards-plus-threes skill set still shows in the rates, but our 16-game expectation is the real projection — this is a veteran cameo, not a rotation piece. Skip.
Kevin Love enters 2026-27 at #352 on our board — Round 30 value in a standard 12-team draft, projected for 5.6 points, 4.8 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 14.5 minutes a night. The value is built on turnovers, with scoring the soft spot in the profile. He's a natural fit for punt-scoring builds — take that category out of the equation and his value climbs. Availability is the swing factor — we expect about 16 games, which is priced into his draft value.
