Cleveland Cavaliers to play three games at Salt Lake City Summer League Author:

CLEVELAND, Ohio — The Cleveland Cavaliers will participate in the Salt Lake
City Summer League for the first time, playing three games in early July before
heading to Las Vegas.

The Cavs will be one of four teams to take part in the six-game summer showcase
that features a round-robin format. The Cavs will open the tournament on July 1,
playing the San Antonio Spurs at 7 p.m. ET. Their second matchup will be against
Utah on July 2 at 9 p.m. ET. The Cavs will wrap up play against the Memphis
Grizzlies, tipping off the finale at 7 p.m. ET.

According to sources, the Cavs haven’t decided yet if last year’s first-round
pick Collin Sexton will participate. Sexton, who was named to the All-Rookie
Second Team Tuesday afternoon, may end up traveling with the team so he can go
through team workouts instead of playing. Sexton made his NBA debut in Las Vegas
Summer League last July.

Head coach John Beilein said he isn’t sure if he would coach every session. –

The Cavs’ schedule for their appearance at the 2019 Salt Lake City Summer League
is set.

In a press release sent out on Wednesday, the team announced that the Cavs will
play three games in three days in Salt Lake. On Monday, July 1, the Cavs will
play the Spurs at 5 p.m. MT. (3 p.m. ET.) On July 2, the Cavs will play the Jazz
at 7 p.m. MT (5 p.m. ET). And on July 3, the Cavs will play the Grizzlies at 5
p.m. MT (3 p.m. EST.)

This is the first time Cleveland will be playing in Salt Lake City and it’s a
good idea on their part. It’s only three games, but that’s more reps for the
team’s young players. And with new head coach John Beilein installing his own
offense, it’s more on-court time for players to get comfortable with it in real
time.

What remains to be seen is a) who will coach the team and b) what the roster
will look like. It’s possible that Beilein could, but it seems unlikely. As far
as the roster goes, Collin Sexton, the No. 5 pick in the draft and the No. 26
pick in the draft are likely candidates. The likes of Cedi Osman, Ante Zizic,
Jaron Blossomgame and Marquese Chriss (if the Cavs have any interest in bringing
him back) could make some sense too. – CLICK HERE to read full story.
