Bogut agreed to a $2.3 million one-year deal which is reportedly not fully guaranteed. The Australian center suffered a fractured left tibia after colliding with Okaro White of the Miami Heat back in February. He played only 58 seconds with the Cavs.
The deal also reunites the seven-footer with Luke Walton. Both were together with the Golden State Warriors from 2014-16.
