The Cleveland Cavaliers were dismayed when Ricky Rubio went down with a torn ACL in late-December. To aid their playoff push, the Cavs ultimately traded Rubio and his expiring contract to the Indiana Pacers for Caris LeVert.

Now, with Rubio's contract having expired, the Cavaliers would like to bring Rubio back to Cleveland. Because the Pacers didn't waive Rubio and his contract expired, the Cavs are able to re-sign the veteran point guard this summer.

Rubio had a bounce-back season with Cleveland. He didn't shoot well for the umpteenth year in a row, but Rubio averaged 13.1 points and 6.6 assist in 28.5 minutes per game off the bench.

The Oklahoma City Thunder and Cleveland Cavaliers competed against each other to acquire the No. 11 pick from the New York Knicks as both teams were believed to be targeting Ousmane Dieng.

"Cleveland and Oklahoma City were eyeing each other throughout the last few days. I think both wanting the same prospect, Ousmane Dieng, who is French but played in the Australia league last year.

"The Thunder were wondering if the Cavs were going to get to 11. The Cavs were wondering if the Thunder would take Dieng ahead of them. I know they both had talks with the Knicks throughout the day."

The Thunder traded three future first round picks to the Knicks to acquire No. 11 while also keeping No. 12.  

The Cavalier selected Ochai Agbaji at No. 14. 

The Cleveland Cavaliers have acquired the No. 49 pick from the Sacramento Kings in exchange for the draft rights to Sasha Vezenkov.

Vezenkov was a first-team All-EuroLeague forward this season and was the 57th pick in the 2017 draft.

The Cavaliers now own picks No. 14, 39, 49 and 56 in Thursday's draft.

Center Chinanu Onuaku is set to workout for the Toronto Raptors and Dallas Mavericks this week, according to Marc Stein.

The Celtics are also reportedly interested on Onuaku, with the Cavs registering the most serious interest after a meeting in Israel.

The 25-year-old won the Israeli Winner League MVP honors with Bnei Herzliya, averaging 15.7 points and 9,7 rebounds in the regular season.

Onuaku played six NBA games for the Rockets from 2016-2018. 

The Cleveland Cavaliers are promoting assistant Greg Buckner to associate head coach under J.B. Bickerstaff, sources told Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.

Buckner joined the Cavs in 2020 and has played a significant role in their defensive success.

Bickerstaff has made other changes on his staff this offseason, including hiring Luke Walton. 

The Detroit Pistons and Indiana Pacers have emerged as the "biggest threats" to sign Collin Sexton this offseason, according to Chris Fedor of cleveland.com.

Sexton, a restricted free agent, is expected to have "multiple suitors." The Wizards are also said to be interested in a sign-and-trade deal.

The Pistons, Pacers, Spurs, Magic, and Blazers are the only five teams with enough projected cap space to make a competitive offer to Sexton.

Sexton is reportedly looking for "starting guard money," starting at around $20 million per year.

Sexton is currently represented by Rich Paul. 

The Cleveland Cavaliers unveiled a refreshed brand identity, including an updated collection of logos.

The theme for the release was "Gold is back." The updated colorways now feature gold, wine, and black. 

The new design shifts away from the recent navy and mustard yellow colorways. 

“It wasn’t necessarily something that was going to shock the fans, it was going to feel new, feel fresh, but also familiar,” said Cavs creative director Daniel Arsham. “I also feel like the team is in a different place than we were certainly from our championship season (2016), and I kind of want to give our new young team their own mark that they can own as we move forward in this new era.”

The Cavs will get new jerseys for the upcoming season as part of the rebrand. 

The proposed jersey designs will also include Statement, Icon and Association Edition uniforms. 

The Detroit Pistons and Indiana Pacers are considered the "biggest threats" to sign Collin Sexton away from the Cleveland Cavaliers, according to reporting from Chris Fedor of Cleveland.com.

The San Antonio Spurs also have "some Sexton fans in their front office."

The Cavaliers had a highly successful season despite losing Sexton early on with a torn meniscus. 

The Cavaliers would like to sign Sexton to a contract in the $15 million to $18 million range, while his camp is seeking $18 million to $22 million per season. Cleveland is skeptical there is a team out there that will be willing to pay Sexton more than $20 million per season.
