I read he's from Santa Monica and moved to Oregon.
Yeah from Cali (it's all the same to me) and lived in Oregon from age 1 till 18, and then at UCLA for 1 year, so he was only in Cali for 2 years max. Not exactly his home as people make it out to be by any stretch of the imagination.
That isn't true. He has a HUGE California connection.
*His father was born and raised in LA.
*His father (for those that don't know)....played in the NBA for a couple of years....including time with the LAKERS.
*Love was dropped from the Nike Portland AAU team (because he went to a Reebok camp and Nike didn't like that...which one could see if you consider where Nike is located), and ended up playing for the historic So-Cal All-Stars AAU team.
*His father, is the younger brother of Mike Love, along with the cousins of Brian Wilson, Carl Wilson, and Dennis Wilson.
Who are those guys?
The Beach Boys
You can't get more of a Califonia connection then that.
"I wish they all could be California...."
