Per the Cleveland Plain Vendor:
The Cavs have their man.
Sources inform cleveland.com {that a} lengthy, exhaustive search ended on Monday morning with the franchise selecting Golden State Warriors assistant Kenny Atkinson, thought-about one of many favorites from the start, to exchange fired J.B. Bickerstaff.
During the last month-plus, the Cavs performed quite a few interviews with varied candidates — over Zoom and in individual — and ultimately narrowed down their finalists to 3: Atkinson, New Orleans affiliate coach James Borrego and Minnesota’s Micah Nori.
