Cavs head coach Kenny Atkinson has simple advice for WNBA players
CLEVELAND — Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Kenny Atkinson has a short rotation of hats and quarter zips he wears to his pregame press conferences. His well-worn Cleveland WNBA hat that’s starting to fade around the edges is one of them. He, appropriately, had that one on during Monday’s pregame availability on the day the Cavs […]
Cavs vs. 76ers: How to watch, odds, and injury report
The Cleveland Cavaliers will look to establish some positive momentum after Sunday’s disappointing loss to the Boston Celtics.

Cavalier of the Week: Evan Mobley
The Cleveland Cavaliers went 1-1 last week, looking strong against the Detroit Pistons and floundering for the first half against the Boston Celtics.

Cavs outclassed by Celtics, fall 109-98

Cavs’ role player is ‘one more’ doctor visit from potential return
The Cleveland Cavaliers have been waiting for the entire season for Max Strus to make his debut.

Evan Mobley knows what he has to do to make partnership with James Harden work
INDEPENDENCE — James Harden’s ability to make each of his new teammates better in different ways has stood out in the first nine games with the Cleveland Cavaliers. The instant chemistry he’s developed with Donovan Mitchell, Jarrett Allen, and Sam Merrill has been easy to see. Evan Mobley is looking to be the next Cavalier […]
Jaylon Tyson’s hidden talent has helped unlock the Cavs
By the time someone gets to the NBA, most of their raw potential has already been explored. A 23-year-old prospect rarely stumbles into a new, prolific role that they’ve never attempted before. But for Jaylon Tyson and the Cleveland Cavaliers, experimentation has led to a great revelation. Tyson’s found success being a pick-and-roll partner with […]
Cavs’ fans couldn’t be happier with the James Harden experience so far
The Cleveland Cavaliers drastically shook up their roster at the trade deadline by swapping out former two-time All-Star Darius Garland for James Harden.

Exclusive: Sam Merrill breaks down clips of his synergy with James Harden
CLEVELAND — Sam Merrill is a “sniper,” according to James Harden, but not the kind Harden is used to working with.

Harden […]
Cavalier punished for flopping in win over Pistons
The Cleveland Cavaliers took down the conference-leading Detroit Pistons on Tuesday, thanks in part to 22 points from Jaylon Tyson and how well he defended MVP candidate Cade Cunningham.
