Bickerstaff during an NBA basketball news conference, Wednesday, Sept. 14, 2022, in Cleveland. If you thought Donovan Mitchell was headed to the New York Knicks, you’re not alone.“All summer, I didn’t really say much. I kind of let you guys do what you guys do,” Mitchell told reporters at a news conference Wednesday.
But Mitchell has now arrived in Cleveland, where hoards of happy fans were eagerly awaiting him this week. “We’ve always admired his game from afar,” Cavs general manager Koby Altman said. “We have a great relationship with Utah and my counterpart over there, Justin Zanik, who I’m pretty close with. I would just describe it as we hung around and hung around and hung around and when they decided to pivot, we were there.”
The former Utah Jazz star was introduced in Ohio Wednesday. Here’s what he said at his introductory news conference:“Yes and no. I had a feeling. You guys do what you guys do and there are always articles about what could happen. It doesn’t matter how much you try to ignore it. You can’t be naive. We all have phones, we have technology, we have Twitter, we have Instagram. We see it but it wasn’t a thought during the year. After we lost, it wasn’t a thought for a little bit.

I’m truly excited to be part of this organization, to be here in this city, to have fun playing basketball with a group of guys who really wants to win. We’re young but we’re hungry and we’re ready.
