Cavaliers' Kevin Love (hand) dealing with panic attacks
Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Kevin Love revealed he's been battling with panic attacks this season.
"On November 5th, right after halftime against the [Atlanta] Hawks, I had a panic attack," Love wrote in a piece for The Players' Tribune. He made an early exit and was admitted into the hospital for what Love considers to be a "mental health" problem. The 29-year-old veteran also says the same issue caused him to leave before the end of an ugly January loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder, which led to the infamous January 22 meeting, where Love was reportedly ridiculed by former teammates Dwyane Wade and Isaiah Thomas for not being available. Love added that the Cavaliers connected him with a therapist after the November 5 incident. He hasn't played since January 30 due to a broken bone in his left hand and isn't expected back until the last week of March.
Love averaged 32.6 FanDuel points in 48 games before going down, with 17.9 points and 9.4 rebounds per contest.
