The Cavs own a team option on swingman C.J. Miles' $2 million contract for next season. It's not cut-and-dry that they pick it up, like once thought. News-Herald

As for next season, when the Cavs hold the option, all indications are that he will return. And if he doesn’t, he has at least positioned himself more favorably with a productive season, compared to his below-average performance last season. “If they decide that I’m not part of what they want to do here, I think I’ll be fine come summertime given the way I played this year,” Miles said. “Hopefully I’m still here with these knuckleheads.” Akron Beacon Journal

They do have a $2.25 million option on C.J. Miles, and will probably keep the shooting guard. Cleveland Plain Dealer

No, C.J. Miles is not related to former Cleveland Cavaliers forward Darius Miles. "I've been asked that a few times since I've been here in Cleveland," said C.J., a guard/forward with the Cavaliers. "I met Darius when I was in high school, and he even asked if we were related." Cleveland Plain Dealer

Kyrie Irving scored 28 points with food poisoning tonight. Kyrie Irving and CJ Miles both played through a bout of food poisoning tonight. Irving still had 28 points and 7 assists. "It's the worst thing I've ever done," Irving said. "I've never really played under the weather like that. It was tough. I tried to get out there for my teammates." Sulia

“It was different,” Miles said of free agency in an exclusive interview with HOOPSWORLD. “Seven years in the same place I pretty much knew where I was going to be every summer coming out. This was the first summer I wasn’t restricted so I kind of had more power as far as going into the decision where I was going to be at. With Cleveland it was just about making the right basketball decision for myself. I felt it wasn’t about money; it wasn’t about anything but basketball. I felt like being able to grow more as a player and being able to find a place where they’re building a young core, to step in, help, and grow myself was a complete deal.” HoopsWorld

“[Coach Scott is going to help me] a lot,” Miles said. “With the Coach Corbin thing the way it happened, though, I felt like the things I said were taken (out of context), like everything I said wasn’t said. I just felt like they asked me questions and I answered them truthfully with what I thought. I felt like where you have a situation where everyone is young from the head coach all the way down to the players at the end of the bench, there’s going to be times where people are lost and not know what’s going on. They asked me what I felt like could have been different and that’s what I said. HoopsWorld

Cavaliers general manager Chris Grant had almost convinced himself free agent C.J. Miles would be signing elsewhere. After all, he was being pursued by the Lakers, the Rockets and a few other teams. "I didn't think he was a candidate for us," Grant said Thursday at the Cavaliers luncheon at Executive Caterers at Landerhaven in Lyndhurst. "I thought he would go to a different place. He kept coming back to us. He said, ‘I want to be here.' It's a place he can jump-start his career." News-Herald

The Cavaliers signed swingman C.J. Miles to a two-year contract on Wednesday. He arrived in Cleveland earlier in the day and took his physical. Attempts to reach Miles were unsuccessful. He announced the reported $4 million deal on Twitter. "Papers signed," he tweeted. "It's a done deal." News-Herald

The deal doesn't preclude the Cavs from trying to re-sign swingman Alonzo Gee. The restricted free agent has yet to find a deal this summer. If the Cavs can't sign Gee to a multiyear deal, he could sign his $2.7 million qualifying offer and become an unrestricted free agent next summer. News-Herald

“C.J. brings solid NBA experience to the team, yet is still just entering his prime at 25,” said General Manager Chris Grant. “His ability to play multiple positions adds depth and flexibility to our roster.” NBA.com

If Alonzo Gee is re-signed, he'll probably start at small forward. First-round pick Dion Waiters will be given every opportunity to start at 2. Miles could get a lot of minutes as the backup at 2 and 3, maybe as much as 25 minutes. Sulia

Another small forward who appears to be drawing consideration from the Bucks is C.J. Miles. Just 25, Miles has already played seven seasons in the NBA, all with Utah, which selected him in the second round of the 2005 draft. Racine Journal-Times

Swingman C.J. Miles remains unsigned and The Salt Lake Tribune reported the Los Angeles Lakers have interest. He met with the #Cavaliers last week. I had the distinct feeling the meeting with the Cavs was just to light a fire under free agent Alonzo Gee. Miles might be a tad bit better offensively, but Gee might had the edge on defense. Sulia

But (the Cavs) still need someone else, and they are looking at unrestricted free agents Carlos Delfino and C.J. Miles. Delfino is 6-6, 230 pounds and averaged 9.0 points and 3.9 rebounds for Milwaukee in 2011-12. He has been in the league for seven years, and is mostly a 3-point specialist. Nearly 50 percent of his shots from beyond the arc. Last season, he shot 40 percent from field and 36 percent on 3-pointers for Milwaukee. Cleveland Plain Dealer
