His last reported height measurement was just over 6'10...coaches said he grew just over an inch during the season. He's only 19 so he's probably still growing.

I will likely go to a game or two this year and definitely watch a lot more of their games on FSN this season. Im happy about the trade as a Minnesota resident. I always thought Love was a bit overrated, but we shall see when he is actually on a good team like he will be this year.

Flip Saunders can just drop the mic after this trade goes down. Wiggins, Young, Bennett. Pretty good haul considering he HAD to trade Love as he was leaving next year anyway.

good deal for both teams. Cavs want to win now, they are automatically a top favorite with Love, and they got a lot of young talent now in Minnesota.

Agree, good trade for both teams. Saunders probably got the best deal possible under the circumstances. Potential star player to build around in Wiggins. At PF they got a young veteran in Young who can hold down the position while Bennett develops. Not too shabby.

James Harden
Kyrie Irving
Mason Plumlee
Derrick Rose
Klay Thompson

Yeah, he kind of sticks out like a sore thumb lol. I guess they really wanted to roll with 4 big men. They're gonna need them against Spain to handle the Gasol brothers and Ibaka.
