Kevin Love Contract: Timberwolves Likely To Offer 60 Million Dollar

According to the Pioneer Press, Minnesota is set to present a contract extension offer to star forward Kevin Love. But will the offer be good enough to get Love to sign?: “Look for the Timberwolves to offer Kevin Love a $60 million, four-year contract extension within the next eight days. Love, 23, who is playing for $4.6 million this season, can become a restricted free agent after the season unless he signs an extension before Jan. 25. If he opts for free agency, the Wolves would have the right to match any outside offer.


Love is currently making only $4.6 million this year, making him the fifth highest paid member of the Wolves. A report says that the Wolves will likely be offering him a $60 million, four year long contract at some point in the next week. With Love eligible for free agency in the next few years, it could a smart move by the Wolves if true.


Love began the 2012 season with a ludicrous 13 straight games with double doubles and is averaging high numbers in just about every category. If this is indeed the contract that the Timberwolves are going to offer their forward, it's hard to say that it wasn't very well deserved.
