Cavaliers Extend Jarrett Allen with $91 Million Deal

The Cleveland Cavaliers have secured veteran center Jarrett Allen with a three-year, $91 million extension, ensuring him $131 million over the next five years. This move follows similar extensions for key players Donovan Mitchell and Evan Mobley, solidifying the team's young core. Allen, who averaged 16.5 points and 10.5 rebounds last season, was pivotal in the Cavaliers' success despite missing the Eastern Conference semifinals due to a rib injury. His performance helped the team rank seventh in scoring defense. By retaining Allen, Cleveland aims to build on their playoff run and compete further in the top-heavy Eastern Conference next season.
