1:54 pm: The Cavaliers have officially signed Brown to a two-way contract and waived Miller, per the team. Brown will be eligible to be active for up to 15 regular season NBA games.
1:41 pm: Cleveland Charge guard Darius Brown II is getting a call-up from the Cavaliers, according to Michael Scotto of HoopsHype (Twitter link), who hears from agent Matt Slan that Brown and the Cavs have agreed to a two-way contract.
Brown, 26, has briefly been on Exhibit 10 contracts with the Cavaliers in each of the past two Octobers after going undrafted out of Utah State in 2024. He has appeared in a total of 78 games for the Charge, Cleveland’s G League affiliate, since going pro, and has become a fixture in the team’s starting lineup this season.
In 34 outings for the Charge in 2025/26, Brown is averaging 12.4 points, 9.7 assists, 3.8 rebounds, and 2.2 steals per game, with a shooting line of .436/.398/.839.
Brown will take the two-way slot that has been occupied in recent weeks by former Bull Emanuel Miller, Scotto reports (via Twitter).
Miller, who spent most of the season with Chicago, was sent to Cleveland in a three-team trade that also involved the Kings to ensure that the Bulls and Cavs were “touching” in the deal (ie. an asset was changing hands between the two teams). Miller’s inclusion in that trade appeared to be simply procedural — he hasn’t been active at all for the Cavs since being acquired and will be waived so he can seek out his next opportunity.
A 6’5″ Canadian forward, Miller made a total of 11 NBA appearances for the Bulls after initially signing a two-way contract with the team in December 2024. The 25-year-old has put up 17.4 PPG, 6.5 RPG, and 2.2 APG in 24 NBAGL games (34.0 MPG) this season for the Windy City Bulls and the Charge.
Cavs get their Darius and Harden too!
