The Cleveland Cavaliers have come to a contract agreement with Larry Drew for him to serve as head coach for the remainder of the 2018-19 season, the team announced on Monday.
“We are pleased to have reached this agreement with Coach Drew to continue leading the team on the court," said Cavaliers GM Koby Altman in a statement. "He brings important experience and many qualities that we expect to translate well with our team as the head coach. We’re looking forward to the ways he can impact the team and help our players continue to grow and find success.”
The deal includes a partial guarantee for next season, according to a report from Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN. Drew reportedly had been reluctant to accept the team's coaching position without a restructuring of his contract.
Drew will be the head coach for rest of this season and has an agreement for 2019-20 if Cavs choose to keep him — or will get a buyout payment should team decide to move on to a new coach, sources said. https://t.co/Jseeh7U20U
