With the NBA offseason now upon us for all but four teams in the league, focus is beginning to short back to Kevin Love and his situation in Minnesota that will likely lead to his exit at some point in time. There are many who believe his days with the Wolves will come to an end before the summer of 2015 and among those predicting an exit it seems the Lakers and Knicks are the most likely destinations for the Wolves’ forward.

But while it’s ways to see Love signing with the Lakers or Knicks in 2015, he may not get super picky when thinking about where he wants to play next. According to Adrian Wojnarowski from Yahoo! Sports, Love is willing to consider signing with any team in the NBA so long as they’re willing to contend right now.

This seems to not rule out the Minnesota Timberwolves, who are desperately trying to convince Love that he should stay and that they’re finally ready to win. This also doesn’t rule out teams like the Golden State Warriors or Phoenix Suns who appear ready to condoned at the moment as well.

Either way, Love isn’t narrowing his options by any means but it’s clear that he has a possible exit from the Wolves on his mind more so now than ever.
