CLEVELAND -- Anderson Varejão has bounced back to the Cavaliers.
One of the most popular players in Cleveland's history, Varejão has been hired as a player development consultant and global ambassador for the team that he played with for 14 NBA seasons.
Known for his hustle and frizzy hair, Varejão, affectionately nicknamed "Wild Thing" for his rambunctious playing style, was with the Cavaliers from 2004 to 2015. He spent two seasons with the Golden State Warriors before the center returned to Cleveland after a three-year break from the NBA. He retired after playing five games in the 2020-21 season.
