Report: John Beilein May Step Down as Cavaliers Coach

Cavaliers coach John Beilein is not expected to remain in his position beyond the 2019-20 season, according to The Athletic.

Beilein and Cleveland management have discussed the possibility of stepping down as soon as the end of the NBA's All-Star break, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports. While a decision has not been reached, a prompt exit is reportedly in the cards.

The Cavaliers signed Beilein to a five-year deal to become Cleveland's head coach in May 2019. Prior to joining the Cavaliers, Beilein spent 12 years as head coach at Michigan, leaving with a 278–150 record and nine NCAA tournament appearances.
