Shortly after the Cleveland Cavaliers season ended in the second round against the Boston Celtics, reports came out about dysfunction within the team. One of the central issues was that star guards Donovan Mitchell and Darius Garland hadn’t found their footing as a backcourt pairing. It was going so badly that reports said Garland would ask for a trade if Mitchell extended in Cleveland.
However, that’s not the truth, according to Garland.
“I don’t want to be traded,” Garland said. “Those are just rumors.”
In fact, Garland has met with Cavs GM Koby Altman, and the topic of a trade has never come up. Garland also reportedly indicated he’s happy for Mitchell and happy with Cleveland’s hiring of Kenny Atkinson as their new head coach.
