Report: Love meets with family, will go pro

Apparently, a weekend with his family didn’t change much for Kevin Love.

It was earlier reported that he had made up his mind, but his mother claimed that the family would convene in Oregon over the weekend to make a final decision.

The paper said an official announcement could come as soon as Wednesday.

Love had a strong freshman season for the Bruins, leading them to their third straight Final Four and earning Pac-10 player of the year honors.

Coach Ben Howland reportedly told Love that NBA scouts had him projected as a sure lottery pick, with some suggesting he could go as high as fourth overall.

Junior point guard Darren Collison is also considering entering the draft, as is sophomore guard Russell Westbrook.

The USC freshman guard announced Wednesday that he would hire an agent and declare for the NBA draft, in which he is expected to become a lottery pick. He is projected as the No. 3 overall selection by nbadraft.net.

Apparently Darrin Collison is considering staying in school, and Kevin Love has not made a formal decision as to whether or not to enter the NBA Draft. It seems to me Collison may still be in doubt, but I would be very surprised if Kevin Love didn’t enter the Draft. Apparently both players were unhappy about the LA Times early report (Read More).
