“K.L. is going to be a player,” Jason Kapono said as he assessed his fellow UCLA alumnus. “The kid can flat-out shoot the basketball and he’s a great kid.”
Kapono knows a thing or two about shooting.
During the warmup last night, Kapono watched in awe as Love stepped outside the three-point arc and drained jumper after jumper with a form only a player of Kapono’s ilk can appreciate.
“Just look at him knock down shots,” the reigning two-time three-point king said. “He’ll be very effective in pick-and-pops.”
Kapono worked out with Love in the off-season, showing the kid the ropes and trying to serve as a mentor.
