Cleveland Cavaliers All-Star guard Donovan Mitchell has just one year remaining on his contract before he is faced with a player option for the 2025-26 season, but the Cavs organization reportedly feels good about its chances of signing him to an extension.
Speaking on the Brian Windhorst & The Hoop Collective podcast (beginning at the 52:10 mark), ESPN NBA insider Brian Windhorst said the Cavaliers are "very optimistic" they will be able to get a deal done with their star player.
Cleveland acquired Mitchell from the Utah Jazz in a blockbuster trade in 2022, and since his arrival he has been named an All-Star twice and has led the Cavs to two playoff appearances.
