The Cavaliers are confident of reaching a contract extension soon with Donovan Mitchell

As the Cavs' coaching search nears a possible conclusion, team management will offer Mitchell a four-year, $209 million contract, team and league sources said. As for the coaching search, both Borrego and Atkinson are offensive-minded coaches who value ball movement and variety in their offense — things Mitchell craves. Multiple sources briefed on the upcoming decision to replace JB Bickerstaff, who was fired last month, said both Borrego and Atkinson have support among the team's top executives, and the team is hoping to get a selection in the NBA Draft, which begins Wednesday. -via The New York Times / June 24, 2024
