Varejao loves Cavs

INDEPENDENCE, Ohio – Even when he opted to become a free agent, Anderson Varejao thought his best option was to remain a Cleveland Cavalier.

Less than a month after declining an option year on his contract, Varejao signed a six-year deal that could pay him $50 million with incentives, but averages closer to $7 million annually. It’s a raise over the $6.2 million he was set to earn under the previous deal, but also leaves the Cavaliers with financial flexibility in the years ahead.  (AP)
