Tyronn Lue is staying in Cleveland.
The Cavaliers announced Tuesday that the team agreed to a multi-year contract extension with the coach.
“Ty took over our team under very trying circumstances and his calm, confident approach was invaluable as we found our way to success,” said General Manager David Griffin. “His vision, leadership and tactical acumen were fundamental to us reaching our goals. We couldn’t be happier to have Ty continue to lead our group into the future.”
The team did not release any specifics about the number of years or the amount of the contract.
Lue did not sign a new contract when he was promoted from associate head coach to replace David Blatt, who was fired in January.
The Cavs went on to win the first championship for the city in 52 years.
ESPN reports he was already the league's top-paid assistant coach when he was added to Blatt's staff in 2014.
