Cavaliers notebook: Dahntay Jones brings voice locker room lacked; Edy Tavares signed for two more years

CLEVELAND: If there was any indication of the impact of last-minute roster shuffling on the Cavaliers’ playoff future, general manager David Griffin said the first clue came during Wednesday’s team picture.

Griffin said the addition of Dahntay Jones, even though he’d been “on the ground for about 45 minutes,” changed the dynamic in the photographs and in the locker room.

“Team pictures were the most vocal we’d been in a long time today,” Griffin said before the Cavs closed out the regular season against the Toronto Raptors at Quicken Loans Arena.

Just as they did a year ago, the Cavs signed Jones on the final day of the regular season.
