Cloud9 will promote former Cloud9 Challenger jungler Juan Arturo "Contractz" Garcia to their LCS starting roster, according to a report from ESPN's Jacob Wolf.

Citing sources close to the team, the report said that Contractz will replace William "Meteos" Hartman as Cloud9's starting jungler, with Meteos moving to a substitute role on the team. Cloud9 will also sign former Team Dignitas top laner Jeon "Ray" Ji-won as a sub. ESPN said Cloud9 declined to confirm the moves.

The report follows an earlier report this morning that Milwaukee Bucks co-owner Wesley Edens purchased Cloud9 Challenger's LCS spot along with the contracts of all of its players except for Contractz.

Contractz joined C9 Challenger in June and competed with the team for the duration of the 2016 NA CS summer season. In the summer playoffs, which C9C ultimately won, Contractz secured a 4.30 KDA on champions such as Graves, Rek'Sai, Gragas and Nidalee.

Ray, who played with Apex Gaming before the team was acquired by the Philidelphia 76ers and rebranded as Team Dignitas, left Apex on Dec. 1. During his time on the team, they placed seventh in the summer season, just outside of the playoffs but enough to prevent relegation. He earned a 2.80 KDA across 46 games in the summer season, playing mostly Irelia, Jarvan IV and Gnar.

The remaining players on Cloud9, including Jung "Impact" Eon-yeong, Nicolaj "Jensen" Jensen, Zachary "Sneaky" Scuderi and Andy "Smoothie" Ta, are contracted with the team until Nov. 20, 2017.
