Maccabi Tel Aviv swingman Yovel Zoosman will join the Cleveland Cavaliers for the upcoming Summer League held in Salt Lake City, 1-3 of July.
After going undrafted in the 2019 NBA Draft, Zoosman will thus pursue an opportunity to land an NBA deal via the Summer League during free agency. The 21-year-old Israeli player comes off a EuroLeague season in which he averaged 14:46 minutes over 30 games.
Maccabi has been reported to be preparing a four-year contract offer to Zoosman.
Per the Cavaliers:
The Cleveland Cavaliers today announced the team’s roster for the 2019 Salt Lake City Summer League held July 1-3 in Salt Lake City, UT. The roster features 2019 NBA Draft selections Darius Garland (fifth overall), Dylan Windler (26th overall) and Kevin Porter Jr. (30th overall). The team also includes Muhammad-Ali Abdur-Rahkman, Malik Newman and JaCorey Williams, who each spent time this past season with the Canton Charge, Cleveland’s exclusively owned and operated NBA G League team. Cavaliers Head Coach John Beilein will coach the team during the three-game schedule.
Cleveland will play three games during the four-team showcase, conducted in a round-robin format with the Utah Jazz, San Antonio Spurs and Memphis Grizzlies. All three Cavaliers games will be played at Vivint Smart Home Arena and will air live on NBA TV. This year will mark the Cavaliers’ first as a part of the Salt Lake City Summer League.
