Sep 14, 2022; Cleveland, OH, USA; Cleveland Cavaliers president of basketball operations Koby Altman speaks to the media during an introductory press conference at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse. Mandatory Credit: David Richard-Imagn Images The Cleveland Cavaliers signed president of basketball operations Koby Altman to a contract extension through the 2029-30 season, the team announced Monday following an ESPN report.
Members of Altman’s staff — including general manager Mike Gansey, assistant general manager Brandon Weems, vice president of basketball operations/general counsel Jason Hillman and vice president of basketball strategy and personnel Jon Nichols — were included, likewise extended through 2030.
“Koby Altman has demonstrated that he is the right person to lead this franchise. He is not only an outstanding team-builder, but he has also created an exceptional culture that transcends the basketball side of our business and serves as a positive foundation and philosophy for the entire franchise,” Cavaliers chairman Dan Gilbert said in a statement. “Koby not only has a great nose for basketball talent, but he has recruited and developed extraordinary front office talent as well. This unique combination has positioned our franchise to compete for championships for years to come.
“The decision to extend Koby and his team is not solely based on recent success, but rather the entire body of work since he took over the role in 2018.”
The move comes off a stretch of success for the Cavaliers, who finished first in the Eastern Conference last season with a 64-18 mark — the second-best record in franchise history. The LeBron James-led Cavaliers won 66 games in the 2008-09 season.
Last year’s high watermark continued a run of three straight seasons with playoff appearances, including back-to-back Eastern Conference semifinal appearances.
Altman, 42, was named GM of the Cavaliers on July 24, 2017, and promoted to his current role in January 2022.
In the past three seasons, the Cavaliers have a combined record of 163-83. They lost the Eastern Conference semifinals to the Indiana Pacers in five games to end this past season amid a variety of injuries.

Kirby Smart at 2025 SEC Media Days: Key points from Georgia coach, what they mean entering 2025 season
If it was up to Kirby Smart, college football would be centered around "fire, passion and energy" and none of these landscape-altering changes the sport has endured over the last few seasons. The Georgia coach is a football-first guy, after all, forced to concern himself with new norms of personality changes and player entitlement because he's seen it inside his own elite program.The two-time national champion and reigning SEC winner made several broader points Tuesday at SEC Media Days, pointing out how much college football is continuing to evolve with NIL and revenue-sharing and the stress it puts on building a championship-level team."You can say what you want, but there's people more in college football today, especially in the SEC, that are comfortable with where they are," Smart said. "This is a pretty good life. 'I'm earning $200k a year. […]
The fantasy football quarterbacks to draft … and those to avoid
Every year on their draft day, fantasy football managers are guided by rankings, sometimes aggregate rankings or the default rankings from their fantasy game platform. However, rankings don’t necessarily illustrate the value drops between consecutively ranked players, and using the same rankings as everyone else in your league provides zero advantage over other managers. Tip 1: Choose your favorite ranker (me!). Tip 2: Locate the value cliffs at each position and compare positional values. You can do this easily using our charts below.AdvertisementToday, we’re talking quarterbacks, but before diving too deep, read our primer on value cliffs, which we’re calling “Chasms of Doom.” [Link]To win each week, you want to create as much of an advantage as you can in each position group.

It’s Time for Browns Rookie Shedeur Sanders to Show Us Who He Really Is
<!--> [--> Henry McKenna NFL Reporter <!--> --> Few people share as much about their lives as Shedeur Sanders does. And even fewer remain as indecipherable as Sanders while living so publicly. I don’t just want to understand who Shedeur Sanders is now. I want to know who he will be. With everything that’s happened this NFL offseason, it’s hard to know anything for certain about the Cleveland Browns quarterback. For example: Where does he stand on the depth chart among the team’s five QBs? There’s no obvious answer.Even with all of his time in front of a camera or speaking into a microphone, we don't know Sanders yet. Multiple people close to him say that the Sanders we see in the public sphere isn't the guy we'll get to know throughout his career. We haven't met the real guy — […]
