Report: Cavaliers to sign 7-foot center Sasha Kaun to 2-year deal

After weeks of speculation, the Cleveland Cavaliers and Russian center Sasha Kaun have agreed to terms on a two-year contract, according to international basketball reporter David Pick.

The second year is a player option, according to ESPN's Brian Windhorst.

Kaun has been on the Cavs' radar for a while now, and just last week he was reportedly in Cleveland looking for a place to live. The 30-year-old is very familiar with bench boss David Blatt, who previously coached him on the Russian national team.

The 7-footer played at Kansas before having the distinction of being the final player drafted by the Seattle SuperSonics before their move to Oklahoma City to become the Thunder. The Cavaliers have held his rights since, while he has played his entire pro career in Russia.

At this point Kaun represents an inexpensive depth addition for the Cavs, who still have yet to come to terms with power forward/center Tristan Thompson.
