Toney Douglas signs with Cavs, J.R Smith speechless
NBA News – It’s safe to say the Cavaliers wouldn’t be NBA champions without J.R. Smith. But here we are in early October, and Smith remains without a contract.
It just might be starting to get to him.
On Monday, when Cleveland inked point guard Toney Douglas to join its backcourt, the veteran shooting guard appeared to be at a loss for words when he tweeted an ellipsis shortly after the announcement of the signing.
One thing that Smith does have in his favor is the endorsement of LeBron James. The four-time NBA MVP has made it clear he wants Smith back in the fold.
“It’s just too big of a piece to our team to have to deal with (the contract situation) in another training camp,” James said last week, via Cleveland.com. “Like I said, hopefully things get resolved fast, because you know how big and important he is to our team.”
