The Cleveland Cavaliers will offer All-Star guard Kyrie Irving a five year contract extension in the $90-million range, dismissing speculations that the franchise is hesitant in giving the star guard a maximum contract.

According to Cleveland.com, sources knowledgeable of the situation say that the Cavs will offer a maximum contract extension to Irving on July 1, or the start of the free agency period.

The deal is similar to the one that John Wall signed with Washington prior to the start of the 2013-14 season. Wall's contract extension gave the franchise a sense of stability, and the explosive guard did deliver in the regular season as he was able to become an All-Star and more importantly, lead the Wizards back to the playoffs. The Wizards even upset the Chicago Bulls in the first round before falling to the Indiana Pacers in the East semis.

There were rumors that the Cavs are hesitant in giving Irving a maximum deal fearing the All-Star guard is not worth all that money. While one of the most explosive guards in the league, Irving has been injury prone and worse, has been accused of being too selfish. He has also been rumored to be a distraction in the locker room, quarreling with backcourt mate Dion Waiters.

The Cavaliers still have to name a new head coach after former tactician Mike Brown was fired at the end of the season. Luckily for the Cavs, they have the first pick in this year's draft considered as one of the deepest in recent memory.
