Cleveland was eager to build with Love and All-Star point guard Kyrie Irving and hoped the pairing could’ve become an incentive for LeBron James to seriously consider a return to the Cavaliers in free agency, sources said.

Through Love’s agent, Jeff Schwartz, Cleveland was warned Love would opt out of his contract in 2015 and never consider the Cavaliers’ offer of a long-term maximum contract, league sources told Yahoo Sports.
