“The entire Cavaliers family is extremely pleased that Mike Gansey is receiving the recognition that he is here today,” said Cleveland Cavaliers General Manager David Griffin. “Gans is among the best and brightest of all young executives in the game. This award couldn’t be more deserved both in terms of ability to build and develop teams and coaching staffs and his ability to lead and guide a front office. Mike has worked seamlessly in conjunction with Trent Redden, Koby Altman and Brendon Yu on the player personnel side and has a unique ability to take those facets of Cavaliers culture that we cherish off the floor, and further them.”
