Cavs Pick Up Contract Options on Irving and Thompson for 13-14 Season

In a move that was expected, the Cavs have decided to exercise the 2013-2014 contract options on Kyrie Irving and Tristan Thompson which means they won’t be free agents until the summer of 2014.

The Cavs have decided to build their team around a core of Irving and Thompson, while adding pieces through free agency that keeps them a contender for years to come.

The Cavs signed CJ Miles in the offseason to add some scoring and a veteran presence among a team with an average age of 24, with only 2 players older than 27 ( Anderson Varejao 20, Luke Walton 32).
