After winning the NBA championship, head coach Tyronn Lue has agreed to a 5-year, $35 million contract extension with the Cavs. The agreement was reached on Monday and a formal announcement is expected to be made.
After his promotion to head coach following David Blatt’s firing in January, Lue gambled on himself and decided against signing a shorter, less lucrative deal as Cavaliers’ coach.
