CLEVELAND, Ohio -- As negotiations continue between acting coach Larry Drew and general manager Koby Altman about restructuring Drew's contract, Cavaliers chairman Dan Gilbert said he is staying out of it.
"I leave that up to Koby Altman and I'm confident they will get it worked out between the two of them," Gilbert said Thursday evening, following the All-Star Game announcement at Quicken Loans Arena.
For Gilbert, those were his first public comments about the situation since former head coach Tyronn Lue's firing on Sunday morning.
"Very difficult. I like Ty as a person and a coach," Gilbert said.
