Teams "Backing Off" Trying To Aquire Darius Garland

According to ESPN's Brian Windhorst, citing league executives, teams around the NBA are "backing off" from trying to acquire Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland. Cavs President of Basketball Operations Koby Altman recently indicated the team isn't looking to trade the 24-year-old. Yet, it may not be possible, especially Cleveland hopes to sign Donovan Mitchell to an extension. Garland averaged 18.0 points and shot 37.1% from behind the arc last season, both down from the 2022-23 campaign. He was also limited to 57 games because of injury. However, Garland figures to be a viable fantasy asset in 2024-25, regardless of where he ends up.

Trade Market For Darius Garland Cooling Off

According to ESPN's Brian Windhorst, the trade market for Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Darius Garland has cooled off. "There are now teams that are sort of backing off, saying well, maybe Garland is not gonna be available," Windhorst said during an appearance on ESPN Cleveland's The Really Big Show. The statement comes after Cavaliers president Koby Altman recently suggested that the team isn't desperate to break up the duo of Garland and Donovan Mitchell. It has been reported that Garland will seek a trade if the Cavaliers sign Mitchell to an extension this offseason.

Cavaliers Ready To Offer Donovan Mitchell Max Extension When New Coach Is Found

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell is expected to start extension talks with the team soon. According to NBA insider Evan Sidery, Cleveland wants to have its new head coach in place before presenting Mitchell with his $208 million extension. A four-year, $208 million deal is the maximum amount the Cavaliers can offer to Mitchell, whose current deal allows him to become an unrestricted free agent next summer. The five-star All-Star has been linked with a move away from Cleveland, but it looks like he's set to stay, with the team needing to make other moves to accommodate Mitchell's needs. Darius Garland is expected to leave Cleveland if Mitchell agrees to an extension.

Pels, Cavs Expected To Discuss Darius Garland

According to NBA insider Evan Sidery, the Pelicans and Cavaliers are expected to "re-engage" in discussions surrounding guard Darius Garland. The Cavs may want to break up the backcourt duo of Garland and Donovan Mitchell. Of course, Cleveland would rather keep Mitchell on the roster. If that happens, Garland could be on his way to a new team. The 24-year-old averaged 18.0 points during the 2023-24 campaign, over three points fewer than the previous season. He also appeared in only 57 games due to injury. There's no denying Garland's upside. However, he isn't a reliable offensive contributor. His inability to stay healthy will also negatively impact his fantasy stock. But the 2019 No. 5 overall pick could benefit from a change of scenery and surpass fantasy expectations if he can figure out how to stay on the floor. The Pelicans could also use a stable presence at the one position.

Donovan Mitchell "Happy" In Cleveland

According to Cleveland Cavaliers president of basketball operations Koby Altman, guard Donovan Mitchell is "happy" to be on the team. "My exit interview with him was really good in that he was talking about the future and how excited he was about the team and organization," said Altman while speaking to the media on Friday. "From his own words, he says he's happy and likes it here." The 29-year-old has flourished in Cleveland, and he finished his most recent season by averaging 26.6 points while amassing career-highs in assists (6.1), rebounds (5.1), and steals (1.8). He's searching for a lucrative extension, which the team will likely offer this summer. From a fantasy standpoint, Mitchell is as productive as it gets. However, he's missed 41 games in the last two seasons, negatively impacting his fantasy value for the 2024-25 campaign.
