The Cleveland Cavaliers were set to make Danny Ferry their general manager on Saturday, but while he was on his way to Cleveland, he stopped short of finalizing the contract for undisclosed reasons, The Cleveland Plain Dealer reported.
Ferry, director of basketball operations for the San Antonio Spurs, reportedly had agreed to a five-year, $10 million deal, the paper reported.
The Cavs had been expected to announce a news conference introducing Ferry to the media early next week.
According to a report by The News-Herald last week, Ferry's hiring hinged on Detroit Pistons coach Larry Brown accepting the Cavs offer of becoming team president.
Ferry has been in the Spurs' front office since September 2003 after playing 13 NBA seasons.
