CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The Cleveland Cavaliers are planning to waive swingman Patrick McCaw before his contract becomes guaranteed, league sources told cleveland.com.
The Cavs signed McCaw to a non-guaranteed two-year offer sheet on Dec. 28 and officially joined the team on Dec. 31, which gave them about a week to evaluate him before making a final decision on his future. The deadline for McCaw and other players on non-guaranteed deals is Monday. This decision will once again give the Cavs an open roster spot.
According to sources, the Cavs didn't see enough from McCaw in a limited time to justify guaranteeing his contract for the remainder of the season.
