Okoro Remains in Cleveland. Finally, the news of the renewal of the contract has been announced.

ESPN reporter Adrian Woznarowski reported on the 15th (Korea Standard Time) that the Cleveland Cavaliers re-signed Isaac Okoro for three years and $38 million.

Cleveland ranked first in defensive ratings in the 2022-2023 season and sixth in the 2023-2024 season to become the top seed in the Eastern Conference for the second consecutive year. Isaac Okoro also contributed significantly.

Okoro, who was drafted by Cleveland in the 5th overall pick in the 2020 draft, has been praised for his potential in defense since his debut. He is 196 centimeters tall, not big for a wing, but he is an influential player in defense with outstanding athletic ability. 스포츠토토

Although he played a key role in Cleveland's defense, news of the contract was delayed a lot in the FA market. It was a burden to give a huge amount of money because he was disappointed in attack compared to his defense.

Okoro, who averaged 27.6 minutes and scored 8.5 points in his NBA career, has yet to have an average double-digit scoring season. He averaged 9.4 points last season and only 5.5 points in the playoffs due to a sharp drop in fielding efficiency. His small stature compared to his position and relatively poor offense were holding him back.

Okoro, who was rumored to be transferred to various clubs along with the signing and trade rumors, eventually agreed to renew his contract with Cleveland at a time when training camp was just around the corner. After signing extended contracts with Donovan Mitchell, Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen this off-season, Cleveland succeeded in catching Okoro.
