The Cavaliers and LeBron James may begin discussions on his contract extension as soon as July 1st pops its head, but the All-Star made a surprise appearance on Friday by showing up at the club's press conference to introduce their draft picks.
"It's good to see him -- anytime," coach Mike Brown said.
"We'll make a call and allow things to unfold," Danny Ferry said. "Feeling like we have to rush this is a mistake. The earliest he (James) can do anything is the 12th. Rushing it is not a necessity. That process starts tonight and carries on through. We're going to initiate things with them and go from there."
