Report: Matthew Dellavedova not close to Cleveland Cavaliers deal

Report: Dellavedova not close to deal

Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Matthew Dellevedova is reportedly no closer to agreeing terms on a deal with the organisation.

The Australian played a key role in helping the Cavs to the NBA Finals last season, but is now a restricted free agent.

The Cavs are not interested in paying his demands, as it would leave them in significant luxury tax territory, according to Sports Illustrated.

Cleveland have offered new deals to Kevin Love, LeBron James and Iman Shumpert already this summer.

However, Dellavedova joins Tristan Thompson without a new deal as they wait to agree on a new contract.
