Kevin Love was at the center of a report on Saturday that said he had an outburst at the Cleveland Cavaliers’ general manager. Based on his actions later in the day, the report seems true.
Love got visibly frustrated with teammate Collin Sexton before halftime of the Cavaliers’ game against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Saturday evening. Sexton was dribbling out the shot clock in the final 20 seconds of the first half and did not pass the ball to Love, who appeared to want the ball to take advantage of a mismatch while being guarded by Chris Paul. After finally getting the ball from Sexton, Love angrily fired a two-handed pass to Cedi Osman.

Love’s outburst towards GM Koby Altman centered around the veteran reportedly expressing his disgust with the organization. Love previously had an outburst during the team’s game against Toronto in which he complained about how selfish the team was playing. Sexton’s lack of passing on that possession seems to illustrate Love’s issue.
As trade rumors surrounding Love swirl, it seems pretty clear that he wants out — and we think we know where.
