INDEPENDENCE, Ohio — The Cleveland Charge, the G-League affiliate of the Cleveland Cavaliers, will be hosting an open tryout this weekend for the public to compete for a chance to make the team's 2024-25 roster.
The tryout is an annual event at which players of all skill sets can show off their skills for a chance to make the team.
The tryouts will take place on Saturday, Sept. 14, from 10:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at HoopTech, 7717 Victory Lane, North Ridgeville.
In the past, players like forward Dibaji Walker, a Cleveland State University grad, and forward Gabe Osabuoihen attended the tryout and made the team.
There is a $200 fee to register, and you can complete registration here.
First-year head coach Chris Darnell said this is what his staff is looking for at the tryouts:
"Good basketball players, you know, guys that can obviously dribble pass and shoot, but really people that understand how to play a team game," Darnell said. "Understand how to play with other people on the floor have a high IQ and really people that just want to compete and win."
