Cavaliers Sign Riley Minix to Two-Way Deal, Finalizing 18-Man Roster

The two-way deal finalizes Cleveland's 18-man roster, with Minix set to log most of his games for the G League Charge.

Overview

  • The team announced the two-way signing on Saturday, filling the Cavaliers’ third and final two-way slot.
  • Minix joins Tristan Enaruna and Emanuel Miller as Cleveland’s current two-way players.
  • Since joining the Cleveland Charge, Minix has averaged 19.3 points, 6.7 rebounds, and shot 45.7% from three over 12 games.
  • The opening was created when Nae’Qwan Tomlin’s two-way was converted to a standard NBA deal, after Cleveland had acquired Minix’s G League rights on Jan. 13 by sending 2027 first- and second-round G League draft picks to Westchester.
  • Because the move comes late in the season, Minix’s NBA active-game allotment is prorated and he is expected to spend most of his time with the Charge.
