Cavaliers keep Irving, all eyes on LeBron
Print Edition
KYRIE Irving signed a five-year contract extension on Thursday with the Cleveland Cavaliers as the NBA club made moves that could pave the way for signing free agent superstar LeBron James.
Irving’s deal, believed to be worth the maximum US$90 million, ensures the Cavaliers’ point guard will be part of the club’s long-term talent mix.
The Cavaliers announced the move on Thursday as fans awaited word on James, the former Cleveland star who left for Miami as a free agent in 2010 and led the Heat to two NBA titles and the past four NBA Finals.
James opted out of his contract with the Heat last month, as did fellow stars Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh. While the Heat hope to lure them all back, Houston has pitched a richer deal to Bosh and James has spoken to several clubs, notably the Cavaliers squad he spurned for Miami in 2010. James was taken first overall in the 2003 NBA Draft and lifted the Cavaliers into the NBA Finals for the first time in 2007, only to be swept aside by San Antonio.
