As a second-round pick in last month’s NBA Draft, it was widely assumed that former Virginia star Joe Harris, like most second-rounders, would have to battle it out in training camp for a roster spot on the Cleveland Cavaliers.

As it turns out, Harris already appears to have made the team.

On Tuesday, sources told The Daily Progress that Harris has signed a guaranteed two-year deal with Cleveland.

Typically, only first-rounders receive guaranteed contracts, which tells you that the Cavaliers’ front office must have liked what they saw out of Harris during the recent NBA Summer League in Las Vegas. “Joey Hoops” averaged 7.8 points, 1.5 assists and 1.5 rebounds in four games.

With his 3-point shooting ability, Harris is viewed as a good complement to LeBron James, who, in case you missed it, recently inked a two-year deal of his own with his hometown team.

But Harris, who was the 33rd overall selection in the draft, figures to have his work cut out in earning playing time. The Cavs drafted Andrew Wiggins No. 1 overall, signed veteran Mike Miller and are said to be interested in bringing in Ray Allen, James' good friend and former teammate.
