Cavs Sign Point Guard Toney Douglas

The Cleveland Cavaliers have signed point guard Toney Douglas to a contract, General Manager David Griffin announced Monday from Cleveland Clinic Courts.

Per league and team policy, terms of the contract were not released. In a related move, the Cavs have waived forward/center Eric Moreland.

Douglas (6-2, 190) appeared in 61 games for the New Orleans Pelicans last season averaging 8.7 points, 2.3 rebounds and 2.6 assists in 20.7 minutes per game.

He has played for six teams in his seven year career and has career averages of 7.8 points, 2.2 rebounds and 2.3 assists in 19.2 minutes per game. He was originally drafted by the Los Angeles Lakers with the 29th overall pick in the 2009 NBA Draft.

The move means that Douglas will be one of the leading candidates to become the backup PG to Kyrie Irving.
