Head coach JB Bickerstaff has done an excellent job with the Cavaliers so far, as Cleveland have been rising in the Eastern Conference and making the Play-In Tournament this year. They have been in rebuild mode since LeBron and Irving left Cleveland, along with Ty Lue (former head coach of Cleveland and current head coach of the Los Angeles Clippers), but now seem to be getting out of those stages.

Bickerstaff has an amazing team that has been through free agency, the draft, and trades in the season. Now he gets some more help through adding to his coaching staff, but this time with some championship knowledge.

Former Lakers and Kings head coach, Luke Walton, has been hired by the Cavaliers to become their new assistant coach. Adding him will give them depth knowledge of winning a championship, the process, and everything else included within that area of knowledge.

Walton has great insights from being a head coach, an assistant, and a player that will be vital to a coaching staff that has been built by Bickerstaff.

The Cleveland Cavaliers have won the 2023 NBA Summer League championship; they beat the Houston Rockets to remain undefeated and secure the prize.

Isaiah Mobley, Evan Mobley’s brother, showed up in a huge way this summer and it continued Monday night against Houston. He finished the game with 28 points and 11 rebounds. Mobley was also named the game MVP.

The final score was 99-78 to win the NBA 2K24 Summer League championship.

Sam Merrill finished with 27 points, while Emoni Bates finished with 19 points.

Since its inception in 2013 (where a champion was crowned), this is the first time Cleveland has won the Summer League championship.

Both sides have been at a stalemate when it comes to trying to get a new contract secured for Collin Sexton. Sexton wants more money, Cleveland is not buying into that, and now they are at crossroads trying to figure this one out. However, the Cavaliers have not stopped trying and their latest attempt to get him to extend is through this offer.

The offer is believed to be in the range of three years and $40 million dollars. So pretty much a three-year, $40 million dollar extension. Overall, Collin Sexton could be displeased with this offer as he wants “starting guard money.” Something the Cavs have been wary of giving him, for good reasons. Then it also makes sense why Sexton believes he is above their offer, for good reasons.

The restricted free agent does not have many suitors that are competing for him; it is actually just two teams… and they don’t seem as interested as he would hope for. The Spurs and Pacers are the only two known teams to have the cap room to sign Sexton without going through the sign-and-trade. However, neither side has been jumping up and down to pursue the guard.

Ultimately, Sexton believes that the offer Cleveland is giving him is beyond his market value and wants something higher. It has been reported that he and his camp will not bet against themselves just for the sake of getting a deal quick or at least securing it now. They will stay patient and wait to see how the rest of the league shapes up before making any more moves.

Collin Sexton has until October 1st to decide on his qualifying offer, or both sides can agree to extend that decision out further to give them more time. What happens if he accepts the qualifying offer? He signs for one year, $7.2 million. It acts as a prove-it year to the league to get more money, in a way. Also, if he accepts, then the following summer he will be an unrestricted free agent.

Earlier it was reported he was going to test things out through the pre-game warmups, but now things have progressed to a go for tonight’s game. Since breaking his finger on March 6, Allen has not played a single game. No doubt this is a huge return for the Cavaliers as they are fighting for their lives to stay alive, this game will determine who faces the Heat (and who goes home).

The intentions was to always have him warm-up, to see how he does, then make the final determination before the game. Ten minutes before the game is good enough as we now know Allen will be playing.

Cavs lost to the Nets 115-108, to now be forced to play in an intense game that decides their fate – along with the Hawks.

Hawks-Cavaliers are scheduled for today at 4:30 PM AZ Time.
