Cleveland Cavaliers center Timofey Mozgov will play out the final year of his contract without an extension.
The Cleveland Plain Dealer reported Mozgov would earn $4.9 million in 2015-16 and then enter free agency.
The Cavaliers re-signed forwards Kevin Love and Tristan Thompson and Anderson Varejao is entering the final season of his contract.
Cleveland is deep into the luxury tax with several high-dollar contracts on the books, including big deals for LeBron James and Kyrie Irving. Cleveland also re-signed guard Iman Shumpert for $10 million per season in July.
Mozgov could be retained next summer but that is expected to depend on the development of Thompson, who emerged as a central figure, especially defensively, in the postseason.
