June 17 (UPI) -- Cleveland Cavaliers All-Star forward Kevin Love, who has been a vocal leader of mental health and wellness in his NBA career, will be given the Arthur Ashe Courage Award during the 2020 ESPY Awards.
Since writing a personal essay for The Players' Tribune in March 2018, Love has encouraged others to tell their stories and struggles with mental health issues. Through his Kevin Love Foundation, the five-time All-Star selection has worked to help destigmatize anxiety and depression.
