LeBron James has played for three teams during his lengthy NBA career, but the one team he has played for twice is the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Former Cleveland Cavaliers Richard Jefferson and Channing Frye have thoughts on who the greatest point guard in NBA history is.

Before outside-shooting big men proliferated the NBA, there was the duo of Channing Frye and Kevin Love serving that role for the Cleveland Cavaliers. Both were indeed capable 3-point shooters for the Cavs during their time together in The Land, but Frye believes he’s better in that department than Love, as evidenced by his hilarious […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers were a dark horse contender to get an NBA championship this past season. The young core of Evan Mobley, Darius Garland, and Jarett Allen took a huge jump in fulfilling their roles. It was not just because of Donovan Mitchell that the Cavs got 51 wins last season. Rather, it was their […]

When the Cleveland Cavaliers signed Max Strus to a four-year, $64 million deal in free agency, they were adding one of the most well-versed players in the art of shooting on the move.

The Cleveland Cavaliers, fresh off a heartbreaking first-round exit at the hands of the New York Knicks, were one of the busiest teams on the free agent market.

There are many teams who learned a hard lesson before ultimately reaching the apex.

PJ Washington remains a restricted free agent, but if he fails to reach an agreement with the Charlotte Hornets, the Cleveland Cavaliers could be interested in making a move for him.

Jalen Brunson understands that his good friend Donovan Mitchell will constantly be linked to the New York Knicks until he signs an extension with the Cleveland Cavaliers. However, Brunson is not thinking about it. When asked recently about the previous rumors that claim Mitchell could join the Knicks–his hometown team since he’s from New York–in […]

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell has heard these comparisons before, so when discussing how he measures up to soon-to-be Hall of Fame wing Dwyane Wade, his answer is understandably nuanced. On one end of the spectrum is the inspiration he gets from Wade, a former NBA superstar that he studies under and whose resume he […]

Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Darius Garland is an incredibly gifted shot-creator, the best ball-handler to don the Wine and Gold since Kyrie Irving and a three-level scorer with a feathery soft touch and missile range. So good in fact that a number of notable NBA players have come out over the past few years to […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers’ trade for Donovan Mitchell last year helped cement the nascent Cavs as a legitimate playoff team with a dark-horse shot at winning the championship if everything breaks right. Mitchell came in and became the lead scorer the team needed to reach their next level of progression. But for the Cavs to be […]

There is no question that Donovan Mitchell is one of the best guards in the NBA.

One of the biggest reasons behind the Cleveland Cavaliers’ emergence into a legitimate playoff contender during the 2022-23 season was the addition of Donovan Mitchell.

It still feels as though it just happened yesterday, but it’s actually been over seven years now since the day LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers delivered an NBA title to the city by beating Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors in a truly unforgettable fashion. Speaking of Curry, former Cavs forward Iman Shumpert […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers made a concerted effort to surround their stars Donovan Mitchell, Darius Garland, and Evan Mobley with more shooting for the 2023-24 season. After all, the New York Knicks packed the paint during their 2023 playoff series, making it difficult for the Cavs to do much of anything on offense. Thus, in free […]

Darius Garland admitted that it took him a while to move past the Cleveland Cavaliers’ heart-wrenching defeat at the hands of the New York Knicks during the 2023 NBA playoffs. But in the NBA, there’s always a new season waiting at the end of the tunnel to renew hopes that a lost season once dashed. […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers may have failed to put up a good fight against the New York Knicks during the 2023 NBA playoffs, but Darius Garland vows that it won’t happen again.

The Cleveland Cavaliers entered the 2023 NBA playoffs with high hopes. And why shouldn’t they have?

When the Cleveland Cavaliers managed to land Larry Nance Jr. in a trade with the Los Angeles Lakers back in 2018, the resultant fanfare was what one would expect for the son of a former franchise star that was born and raised in Ohio. In fact, in the three-plus seasons that he played for the […]

No matter where LeBron James plays, lives or goes, he and the Cleveland Cavaliers will forever be intertwined.

There are few more memorable NBA Finals series than when the Cleveland Cavaliers came all the way back from being 3-1 down against the Golden State Warriors to win the 2016 NBA championship after seven games.

It’s still unclear just how interested the Cleveland Cavaliers are in trading Jarrett Allen.

Back in the 2015 NBA playoffs, LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers played Jimmy Butler and the Chicago Bulls in the Eastern Conference Semifinals.
