JR Smith is noticeably absent from the Cleveland Cavaliers’ Media Day. After a summer-long game of chicken between the two sides, Swish has yet to resign with the Cavs. Cavs GM David Griffin put the ball in JR’s court this morning:

Later on in the day, Tristan Thompson made sure his stance on JR’s return to the team was clear. “We cannot win a championship without JR Smith,” Thompson said.
In the video above, Griffin said the team hopes for Smith to be added to the mix very soon.
