CLEVELAND (AP) — A person familiar with the negotiations says the Cleveland Cavaliers are trying to finalize a contract agreement with veteran swingman Danny Green. A three-time NBA champion, Green began his pro career with Cleveland in 2009. The 35-year-old Green will sign with the Cavaliers if the sides can “work through details,” according to the person who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the team isn’t commenting on its interest him. Green would give the young Cavs both another outside shooter and a player with postseason experience. He has appeared in 165 playoff games.
