The Cleveland Cavaliers are wasting no time reshaping their roster and preparing for a deep push in the Eastern Conference, here is the September 24th news.
This week, Cleveland added two new faces and got encouraging injury news:
Killian Hayes: The former No. 7 overall pick has signed with the Cavs, looking to reboot his career after inconsistent years in Detroit. At just 23 years old, Hayes still brings length, defensive upside, and playmaking flashes. A low-risk, high-reward pickup for Cleveland.
Thomas Bryant: The veteran center has agreed to a one-year deal. He played a key bench role for the Pacers in their Finals run last season, providing rim protection and rebounding. He enters his ninth NBA season as a solid depth piece behind Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley.
Kyrie Irving Update: Perhaps the most important development is that Kyrie Irving is reportedly ahead of schedule in his recovery from ACL surgery. A faster return for Kyrie could dramatically change Cleveland’s playoff outlook.
For the Cavs, these moves signal both short-term depth and long-term ambition. Hayes provides a developmental piece, Bryant stabilizes the bench, and Kyrie’s comeback could reestablish Cleveland as a true contender in the East.
This roster is quietly becoming one of the most balanced and intriguing in the NBA, and with the September 24th NBA News now behind us, please consider signing up to our newsletter, not only will you get the September 24th News in your inbox but news forever!
