The Cleveland Cavaliers organization has made official this Friday a strategic move in its management structure: the promotion of former Spanish player Jos\u00e9 Calder\u00f3n to the position of assistant general manager. This appointment consolidates the former point guard’s career within the NBA franchise, where he has performed key roles since joining in 2022.<\/p>\n\n
Calder\u00f3n, who initially joined the team as a special advisor, has been a fundamental piece in the execution of various institutional projects. The Cavaliers’ board highlighted that his work has been decisive in achieving the goals set by management, both in the sporting realm and in the external projection of the brand.<\/p>\n\n
Among the most recent initiatives under his management, the organization of the training camp that the team will carry out in Andalusia, Spain, stands out, scheduled to take place between September 30 and October 5, marking an important step in the preparation for the upcoming competitive season.<\/p>\n\n

Calder\u00f3n’s relationship with Cleveland is not new; the Spaniard wore the Cavaliers uniform during the 2017-2018 season, a period in which he reached the NBA Finals, a milestone that marked his professional career. His journey in the American league began in 2005 with the Toronto Raptors and spanned 14 seasons, also defending the colors of:<\/p>\n\n
- Dallas Mavericks<\/li>
- New York Knicks<\/li>
- Los Angeles Lakers<\/li>
- Atlanta Hawks<\/li>
- Detroit Pistons<\/li><\/ul>\n\n
After announcing his retirement in 2019, Calder\u00f3n did not step away from basketball, but rather channeled his experience into sports management. Before his current role in Cleveland, he collaborated closely with the National Basketball Players Association (NBPA), where he served as a special assistant to the executive director.<\/p>\n\n
