The path for the Miami Heat to sign Kevin Love was cleared Saturday, with the Cleveland Cavaliers agreeing to a buyout with a veteran big man.
The Heat, who have up to two available roster spots to bolster the team ahead of their resumption of the Eastern Conference playoff race, are considered the leading candidate to add the 34-year-old veteran.
Having fallen out of the Cavaliers’ rotation, the five-time NBA All-Star has been seeking a landing spot that would lead to a rotation role on a playoff contender.
