CLEVELAND (AP) A person familiar with the decision says the Cleveland Cavaliers are promoting assistant general manager Koby Altman to be their full-time GM.
Altman has been serving as the club’s interim GM for the past few weeks. His deal is being finalized and will be announced in the next few days, said the person who spoke Friday to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the talks.
Altman has been with the Cavs since 2012 and had worked as David Griffin’s assistant since after the 2016 title season. Griffin left the club last month after he couldn’t work out a contract extension with owner Dan Gilbert.
The 34-year-old Altman will be one of the league’s youngest executives.
He’ll have a lot on his plate as All-Star guard Kyrie Irving has asked to be traded and LeBron James can opt out of his contract next summer.
