One day after waiving Chris Livingston, the Cavaliers have filled their newly created two-way opening, announcing today in a press release that they’ve signed forward Tristan Enaruna to a two-way contract.

Enaruna, 24, went undrafted out of Cleveland State out of 2024 and has signed non-guaranteed Exhibit 10 contracts in each of his first two professional seasons, joining the Celtics for training camp in 2024 and the Cavs for camp in 2025. In each case, he was waived in October and reported to his team’s G League affiliate.

Enaruna appeared in 46 games for the Maine Celtics last season and has seen action in 23 contests for the Cleveland Charge so far in 2025/26. The 6’7″ forward has taken a significant step forward in his second year in the G League, averaging 19.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 1.3 steals in 30.8 minutes per game on .533/.355/.750 shooting. His shooting line in ’24/25 was just .466/.294/.588.

While Livingston didn’t suit up much for Cleveland, the team has still used 69 of 90 “under-15” games for its two-way players — a team carrying fewer than 15 players on its standard roster can only have its two-way players active for up to 90 combined games.

Enaruna will be eligible to be active for up to 22 games if he spends the rest of the season with the Cavs, but the club will need to fill its 15th roster spot at some point to take full advantage of that limit. Nae’Qwan Tomlin (who has been active for 44 games) and Luke Travers (19 active games) are Cleveland’s other two-way players.
