The USA’s Men’s Basketball squad again looks to have a formidable roster in the works for this year’s Summer Olympics in Tokyo. Among the players on the team, the Cleveland Cavaliers‘ own Kevin Love has found himself a spot.

While Love certainly has not been the player he used to be for the Cavaliers, he still has an important place with this team. As a veteran, and one of the remaining champions from the 2016 team, Love’s role with these young Cavaliers is that of a mentor, and leader, even though he’s not been stellar in that realm always.
