Cavaliers pursue DeMar DeRozan as Kuminga negotiations stall

The Cleveland Cavaliers are seeking a reliable wing player and have been negotiating with Jonathan Kuminga of the Golden State Warriors. While the Cavaliers remain interested in Kuminga, complexities over his contract, which he seeks to exceed $20 million annually, have hindered progress. To bolster their roster, Cleveland recently signed Mario Hezonja to a one-year non-guaranteed deal. Analyst John Hobbs suggests the Cavaliers could also target DeMar DeRozan, a six-time All-Star recently waived by the Sacramento Kings, which would enhance their championship aspirations in a competitive Eastern Conference.
