Donald Sloan gets warned for most hilarious flop ever
That's Donald Sloan of the Cleveland Cavaliers, with maybe the most hilarious flop I've ever seen. The arms up while spinning will be a great audition for the Cavs community theater production of The Sound of Music.
But as funny as it is, it's a no-no in today's NBA, even though it wasn't called. So Sloan got a little warning from the league as part...
Donald Sloan checks in from Vegas Summer League
Donald Sloan could be the back-up PG for the Cleveland Cavaliers next season when training camp opens. Byron Scott has said that Dion Waiters will get some time spelling Kyrie Irving at the one, but after that there aren't too many options. There's been talk of the Cavs bringing in a veteran free agent point guard this off-season, but nothing's happened yet. Names like...
Zeller, Sloan Headline Cavs First Summer League Win
NBA Summer League games are fun to watch. NBA Summer League games can also be incredibly frustrating when you’re primarily watching guys who are only getting an authentic team jersey if they go to the Cavalier Team Shop like you or me and purchase one.

Atlanta Hawks: Hawks release rookie guard Donald Sloan
Rookie Donald Sloan ended up being the odd man out with Kirk Hinrich’s return from shoulder surgery.
The Hawks waived Sloan today, well in advance of the Feb. 10 deadline for all contracts to be come guaranteed. The Hawks now have 14 players on the roster and, by my accounting, releasing Sloan gets them comfortably below the luxury-tax line so they won’t need to waive anyone...
