"While everyone in our family is saddened at the loss of our home that was filled with so much laugher and incredible memories, we're very blessed that everyone is safe and unharmed," Love said in a statement. "We've very thankful to the first responders who made a valiant effort to save our home, and we're keeping things in perspective as people across our community and around the world are struggling with the current unprecedented health crisis."

"It was completely engulfed in flames at our arrival,'' Jordan told ESPN. "It is a total loss."

Jordan said the source of the fire is not confirmed.
