Cavaliers' DeAndre Liggins: Likely to open season on 15-man roster

Liggins will likely make the Cavaliers' 15-man roster with the team expected to waive Dahntay Jones by Monday, Sam Amico of AmicoHoops.net reports.

Analysis:

The Cavaliers may have been interested in retaining both Jones and Liggins, but with Mo Williams (knee) having yet to file his retirement papers and still technically on the roster, no room figures to be available for Jones. Liggins, a defense-first wing, isn't expected to be a regular member of the Cavs' rotation, but could step into a larger role if the team ends up trading away Iman Shumpert or Jordan McRae, whose names have popped up in rumors over the last few days.
