Cavaliers Rumors: Assistants Jim Boylan, Phil Handy Won't Have Contracts Renewed

The Cleveland Cavaliers have reached the last four NBA Finals, but that hasn’t stopped them from reportedly shaking up the coaching staff following their loss in the 2018 title series.

According to Dave McMenamin and Brian Windhorst of ESPN.com, Cleveland won’t renew the contracts for assistant coach Jim Boylan and player development coach Phil Handy after big-man coach Vitaly Potapenko already departed to join the Memphis Grizzlies.

As a result, Dan Geriot could be made a full-time assistant coach after previously serving as a player development coach, and Damon Jones could take on additional assistant coaching duties as well.
