Olivier Sarr gets a “two-way contract” in Cleveland
Maybe the time has finally come Olivier Sarr taste the NBA again, in Cleveland. The Cavs are really fair enter into a “two-way contract” to finish the season after pushing out guard Darius Brown II, who previously held the position, next to the winger Riley Minick and a strong wing Tristan Enaruna.
Without a franchise since his stint in training camp in Toronto – he was cut before the season started – Alex Sara’s older brother has restarted the G-League, with the 905 Raptors. In 36 games, he averaged 12 points and 7 rebounds in 24 minutes, which is enough to get back into the game and stay ready to take advantage of the opportunity.
The fact remains that his last appearance in the NBA begins today. That was in April 2024 with Oklahoma City, the franchise where he alternated between the NBA and the G-League between 2021 and 2024. With 46 NBA games under his belt, he arrives in Cleveland with a clear profile: big pivot, fairly mobile, capable of serving in short bursts.
The Cavaliers play it safe here by adding an extra 5 post to support the racket already provided, around the quartet Larry Nance Jr. – Evan Mobley – Thomas Bryant – Jarrett Allen.
