Riley Minix
Riley Minix (born September 22, 2000) is an American professional basketball player currently under a two-way contract with the Cleveland Cavaliers and their G League affiliate, the Cleveland Charge. He built his reputation in college, dominating at the NAIA level with Southeastern (earning All-American honors) before a standout final year at Morehead State, where he earned the Ohio Valley Conference Player of the Year award and led the league with 18 double-doubles. After going undrafted in the 2024 NBA draft, he signed a two-way deal with the San Antonio Spurs, but his rookie season was cut short by a torn labrum requiring surgery in January 2025. He returned for a brief stint with the Spurs (waived in December 2025) before the Cavaliers acquired his rights in January 2026 and officially signed him to a two-way contract on February 13, 2026. His journey highlights an uncommon path from NAIA stardom to the NBA's developmental ranks.
