Cleveland Cavaliers Sign Jawad Williams

The Cleveland Cavaliers have signed forward Jawad Williams to a one-year contract.

Williams’ contract is worth roughly $1 million, but is not fully guaranteed. He was a restricted free agent and the Cavs extended him a qualifying offer on June 30. Williams spoke with several other teams but decided to stay with his hometown Cavs.

The 6-foot-9 forward had a breakout season for the Cavs in 2009-10. He averaged 4.1 points, 1.5 rebounds and 13.7 minutes in 54 games, including six starts. He is expected to compete for a starting job when the Cavs open camp next week with new coach Byron Scott.
