We've got some number movement on the #Cavs!

Max Strus has given up No. 1 for James Harden, who wore the number with the Clippers. Strus will now where No. 2, which was worn by Lonzo Ball before.

#Cavs President of Basketball Operations Koby Altman on the rumors swirling that the team was upset with Darius Garland's habits:

"That’s BS. We would’ve been perfectly happy having Darius [Garland] return to the roster after the deadline if this [Harden] opportunity didn’t arise..."
February 6, 2026 at 1:16 AM
The #Cavs have one open roster spot thanks to the Lonzo Ball to Utah trade.

I anticipate that the front office will opt to convert Nae'Qwan Tomlin to a standard contract as opposed to going after any of the recently waived players, such as Cam Thomas, or buyout canadites.

“I was at the house with my fiancée,” Mitchell said when asked about how he heard about the trade. “Obviously, we all saw what D.G. said and what [Klutch Sports CEO] Rich [Paul] said, so you kind of had an idea and kind of had an inkling, but you never know it’s real until it’s real.”

“We both want the same thing. We both want a championship,” Mitchell told Chris Fedor following Wednesday’s game against the Clippers.
