Cavaliers engrossed in Donovan Mitchell, coaching drama ahead of massive offseason
NY Post
Cleveland’s forecast for the offseason is murky as multiple building block players and coach J.B. Bickerstaff’s future with the Cavaliers appear murky.
After being eliminated by the Celtics in five games in the second round Wednesday, Bickerstaff’s future is in “serious jeopardy,” according to The Athletic.
ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported that the Cavaliers plan to take time to evaluate Bickerstaff’s future, but the “organization remains fond of him” after four-plus seasons as head coach.
Further compounding issues is the drama surrounding star Donovan Mitchell.
Mitchell “grew frustrated with some teammates’ lack of maturity, focus, playoff-level readiness, and a willingness to listen,” Cleveland.com reported.
The Cavaliers star has seemingly rebutted these claims since, putting a cap emoji in a post on X referencing Fedor’s report.
