Kevin Love: 'Boston a great city for free agents'

Minnesota Timberwolves center Kevin Love has labelled Boston as a great city, following talk that he could move there to play for the Boston Celtics when he becomes a free agent in 2015.

Rumours have been circulating in the Boston press that the Celtics could move for one or two maximum-salaried players in 2015, as they will potentially have the salary cap space to do so.

"Boston is a great city. I'm sure free agents would love to go there, especially with Brad Stevens as a coach," Love told reporters when questioned about Boston.

"He's a guy that can win basketball games. He gets guys to play for him. They've been having good success there, even in his first year, and he has a lot of young players.

"The coach has a lot to do with it, but yeah, Boston is a great place."

The Timberwolves find themselves in third position in the Northwest Division.
