Cavaliers Confident Star Player Will Extend Contract With Team

The Cleveland Cavaliers are facing some tough decisions this offseason after falling short in the playoffs once again. Jarrett Allen’s injury and JB Bickerstaff’s coaching decisions were key factors in their defeat against the Boston Celtics in the second round. Now, the team is reportedly reviewing Bickerstaff’s tenure and considering their options for the future.

However, the Cavs’ top priority is to keep and extend Donovan Mitchell, their star player. According to a report by Brian Windhorst of ESPN, the team is confident that Mitchell will sign a four-year max contract extension worth $209 million. This deal could solidify Mitchell’s future with the team and provide stability moving forward.

If Mitchell does sign the extension, there is a possibility that Klutch Sports, his agency, will request a trade on behalf of Darius Garland to find him a better long-term fit. The Cavs will need to make some tough decisions about their roster and how to best support Mitchell going forward.

With Mitchell as their alpha player and leader, the Cavs may need to reevaluate their young talent, including Garland and Evan Mobley. Mitchell’s elite playoff performance highlights the need for a strong supporting cast, and the team may need to make some changes to maximize their potential in the future. Stay tuned for more updates on the Cavs’ offseason plans.
