Kevin Loves Injures Elbow While Asleep

There have many been many strange sports injuries over the year, but Kevin Love’s may be the best. Love is playing the best basketball of his life and is probably the best PF in the league, so good thing this didn’t happen during the regular season.

Kevin Love’s going to need a bigger bed. The Timberwolves’ two-time All-Star along with starting small forward Andrei Kirilenko missed Saturday’s preseason return to Target Center — an 82-75 victory over the Chicago Bulls — because of a suddenly sore right elbow. Love didn’t bang it or hyperextend it while playing only the first quarter Friday in Indianapolis. No, he instead slept with his right arm extended off his bed all night Friday and when he awoke Saturday morning, he said he could barely lift a basketball. ‘I couldn’t shoot it 10 feet,’ he said.
