Cavs to sign Sasha Kaun; center projected to back up Timofey Mozgov 22h - NBA CLEVELAND CAVALIER The Cleveland Cavaliers have agreed to a contract with center Sasha Kaun, sources said. Kaun is expected to sign a two-year deal, with the second year being a player option, sources said. Kansas. A 7-footer, he averaged 9.9 points and 4.5 rebounds in 30 Euroleague games last season. Kaun has a history with Cavs coach David Blatt, who coached him on the Russian national team. Kaun was on the Russian team in 2012 that won an Olympic bronze. He projects as a backup to Cavs starter and fellow Russian Timofey Mozgov. Outstanding signing. Should be entertaining.
I'm starting to doubt if he comes back at all, or at a productive level. But they are saying he'll be ready for camp. TT isn't signed yet, so it could get interesting... July 12, 2015 9:51 pm Cavs' Anderson Varejao expected to be ready for training camp by Sean d'Oliveira | CBSSports.com Cavaliers general manger David Griffin said center Anderson Varejao is progressing well from his Achilles injury and is expected to be ready for training camp, reports the Northeast Ohio Media Group. Varejao missed most of the season after he tore his Achilles. Any update on the condition of Kyrie and Anderson Varejao? "Kyrie is rehabbing well. He's in Miami. He's doing really well actually with his rehab protocol. He feels very good. He's certainly on pace right now for where we need to be. Andy, similarly, feels very good. He actually wanted to try to dress in the Finals and wasn't real happy that we didn't let him to do it. So, I anticipate he'll be ready for the start of camp."
If "Chosen Too" is resigned...then Thompson could walk or be forced to accept lesser money like Mr. Chicken Dance.
Oh he is? Ah...never mind then. Then if they think he can shoulder the load that Thompson took on then he figures more prominently in their plans. He is a James' favorite.
Everyone in NBA circles is in love with it. It's aight. Irving/Mo Williams/Delladova Shumpert/JR Smith/Joe Harris/Pointer James/Jefferson/Jones/Osman Love/Thompson Varejao/Mozgov/Kaun
