Since LeBron James left the Cavs last summer, Kevin Love has increasingly looked like the odd man out. At 30, he doesn't fit with Cleveland's long-term rebuild, and ESPN's Will Cain has suggested that the Rockets could target the All-Star:

The Rockets have to consider drastic moves. How about Kevin Love from the Cleveland Cavaliers. How about adding a guy like Kevin Love to James Harden and Chris Paul. It may cost you a young player. It may cost you a guy like Clint Capela, who when it comes to the playoffs, hasn't been what he was during the regular season. The Cavs have to figure out what to do with Kevin Love, he doesn't fit their timeline.

Love signed a four-year, $120 million extension with the Cavs last summer, although injury issues meant that he played just 22 times this past season.
