Sam Merrill becomes highest-paid 60th pick in NBA history
The leaguewide expectation is Ty Jerome will leave in free agency after the Cavaliers acquired Lonzo Ball and re-signed Sam Merrill. The question is where will he land?

Free agent guard Sam Merrill intends to sign a four-year, $38 million contract to stay with the Cleveland Cavaliers, sources tell ESPN. The Cavs negotiated the new deal with Kieran Piller and Mark Bartelstein of @PrioritySports, a success story for the 60th pick in 2020 draft. pic.x.com/NUo8CKR9vH – 2:16 PM

Cavaliers were gathered by Tyrese Haliburton, so the least they could do is get Tyrese Proctor
(good pick for them with Ty Jerome and Sam Merrill hitting free agency) – 9:47 PM
