Cavs traded Caris LeVert because they were worried he would leave via free agency

You mentioned having more of an opportunity here in Atlanta. When you look at free agency, what will you be looking for?  Caris LeVert: We’ll see. I love this situation that I’m in right now. I love this team. The staff has welcomed me with open arms. I didn’t really know Quin (Snyder) previously before coming here. Obviously, I’ve admired his style from afar for a long time. Antonio (Lang), Ekpe Udoh, and Ron Nored on the staff I’ve had relationships with, so I feel pretty comfortable here. Like I always tell them, I’d love to re-sign here. My focus right now is the rest of the season and making the playoffs. It’s definitely something I’d want. -via HoopsHype / March 28, 2025
