A Behind-the-Scenes Look at Kevin Love’s Team USA Experience in Las Vegas

1 Min Read

This week, Team USA hosted a basketball minicamp in Las Vegas for players to practice, meet, and play together.

The reigning gold medalists won’t play their next game as a team until Aug. 31 of next year. Still, it’s clear that they are already getting ready for their next Olympic games.

In attendance at the Team USA minicamp was Cleveland Cavaliers All-Star big man Kevin Love.

Thanks to the official NBA website, fans got a behind-the-scenes look at Love’s experience with the USA Basketball squad.

According to the images, it seems Love had quite a busy week both on and off the court.

Hopefully the time spent with his fellow Team USA teammates and head coach Gregg Popovich will lead to another Gold medal in the upcoming 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo, Japan.
