Cavaliers president of basketball operations Koby Altman signs extension, AP source says

Cleveland – Cavaliers president of basketball operations Koby Altman has signed a contract extension through the 2029-30 season, a person with knowledge of the deal said Monday. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the signing has not yet been announced. ESPN first reported the deal. General manager Mike Gansey and assistant GM Brandon Weems also received extensions. Altman has been with Cleveland since 2012. He has been in his current position since January 2022 after being named general manager in July 2017. The Cavaliers won 64 games this past season and finished with the best record in the Eastern Conference for the first time since 2016 when they won their only NBA championship. Cleveland swept Miami in the first round but was eliminated by eventual Eastern Conference champion Indiana in five games in the conference semifinals. Altman rebuilt the roster after four straight trips to the NBA Finals (2015-18) and a 2016 NBA title during LeBron James's second stint. Altman drafted Darius Garland and Evan Mobley, the franchise's first NBA Defensive Player of the Year. He also acquired Donovan Mitchell and Jarrett Allen in trades. His boldest move though came at the end of the 2023-24 season when he fired J.B. Bickerstaff as coach and replaced him with Kenny Atkinson. With Atkinson in charge, Cleveland got off to a fast start this past season becoming the fourth team in NBA history to win at least its first 15 games. It is the third team in league history to have at least three streaks of 12 wins in a season, including a 16-game run from Feb. 3 to March 14. Atkinson was named NBA Coach of the Year. The Cavaliers are above both aprons of the salary cap, but they acquired veteran point guard Lonzo Ball from Chicago for forward Isaac Okoro and signed forward/center Larry Nance Jr.

Coco Jones Is Engaged to NBA Star Donovan Mitchell

Donovan Mitchell has made a ton of shots in his life, but none more important than successfully sliding a ring on Coco Jones' finger. The R&B singer announced her engagement to the NBA star on Friday (July 11) with a picturesque sun-kissed photo showcasing her precious bling. More from Billboard Coco Jones Brings 'Why Not More?' to NYC: 5 Best Moments Watch Justin Bieber Have a 'Sweet Spot' Dance Party With Sexyy Red in New Video Kid Cudi Marries Longtime Partner Lola Abecassis Sartore: 'Next We Need This Baby' It appears as if Mitchell popped the question in front of white candles as Jones donned a matching white dress. The backdrop couldn't be any more perfect with the sun about to set as the newly engaged couple shared a kiss. Jones and Mitchell received countless congratulatory messages in the comments on IG saluting their love. Angel Reese, Lady London, Ciara, Jaylen Brown and Jessie Reyez all chimed in. 'Yaaaaaayy!! So happy for you guys,' CiCi wrote. The Grammy-winning singer and the Cleveland Cavaliers star had been dating for over a year, but kept things on the hush publicly, before Jones confirmed the couple was indeed an item in March while appearing on Club Shay Shay. 'I love the internet because they definitely clocked my tea. Little spies everywhere,' she told Shannon Sharpe. 'I'm happy and I will say, my music is my outlet where I tell my stories and my truth. Some things I keep for myself because this is my life, too. I say some things and you can hear it on my album.' Jones continued: 'Secrecy is not what I prefer. I don't want to feel like I have to be somebody secret. I don't want to make anybody feel like they're mine. For me, I'm trying to protect myself, and I'm trying to protect my family and who I love, so I am more private.' The countdown to Coco walking down the aisle is on. Both are thriving in their respective crafts. Mitchell is coming off an All-Star NBA season in Cleveland, while Jones released her anticipated Why Not More? debut album in April.

Congrats! Coco Jones And NBA Star Donovan Mitchell Announce Engagement

Source: Bennett Raglin / Getty Love is in the air, and R&B singer Coco Jones and Cleveland Cavaliers star Donovan Mitchell have plenty of reasons to enjoy summer, as the couple has officially announced their engagement. On Friday, July 11, Jones posted a photo of the newly engaged pair sharing a kiss against a sun-covered backdrop, as her left hand rested on his chest prominently showing off her sparkling diamond engagement ring. In a joint statement to PEOPLE , reps for the couple expanded upon the happy news. 'After an amazing season and a sold-out tour, Donovan Mitchell and Coco Jones took a moment to recharge on vacation, which turned it into a beautiful engagement,' the statement began. 'The couple has been dating for two years and look forward to building a life together,' the statement concluded. As of now, the pair have not yet announced a wedding date or any subsequent wedding plans. Jones has kept the details of her relationship with Mitchell relatively private. In April, when asked about her relationship during an interview with The Breakfast Club , she kept it simple, replying 'I'm happy and that's all I got to say about it.' Two months earlier, in February, the Grammy winner told Shannon Sharpe while appearing on Club Shay Shay that she likes to keep the details of her relationship to herself. 'I love the internet because they definitely clocked my tea. I love that. Little spies everywhere. I feel like I'm in a detective movie,' she said. But you know what, I'm happy. And I will say my music is the outlet that I use to tell most of my stories and my truth, and some things I keep for myself 'cause this is my life, too.' 'I think, for me, I'm trying to protect myself, and I'm trying to protect my family and whoever I love. So, yeah, I am more private,' Jones added. Congrats to the beautiful couple. SEE ALSO Congrats!
