Cleveland, Ohio—The NBA Cleveland Cavaliers and Cleveland Clinic have extended their long-term partnership through a new multi-year agreement, continuing Cleveland Clinic’s role as the team’s official healthcare provider since 1993.

Through the partnership, Cleveland Clinic, the No. 2-ranked hospital in the country according to U.S. News & World Report, will continue to provide the highest quality healthcare and medical services for all Cavaliers players and their families, Cavaliers employees and fans for years to come. The renewed partnership also includes the extension of the naming rights to Cleveland Clinic Courts, the team’s state-of-the-art player training and development facility. The announcement was made on the 10th anniversary of Cleveland Clinic Courts, which opened in September 2007.

“The Cavaliers’ longtime relationship with Cleveland Clinic has thrived for over 20 years because of our shared values to perform and deliver at the very highest level and a mutual commitment to serve our Northeast Ohio community,” said Cavaliers and Quicken Loans Arena CEO Len Komoroski. “Cleveland Clinic is the global leader in healthcare, a tremendous community asset, and plays an essential role in our organization. They live near the center of our identity platform and how we approach operating our team, which makes our relationship much more than just a partnership. We are fortunate to have them by our side, and are proud to carry the Cleveland Clinic name in such close association with our brand.”

The agreement ensures that Cleveland Clinic’s experience, expertise, resources, doctors and staff will continue to provide state-of-the-art care to the Cavaliers and its fans.

“Advances in sports medicine have changed the game for professional athletes around the world. Student athletes and active adults have benefited from these advances, as well,” said Richard Parker, M.D., Cavs team physician and president of Cleveland Clinic Hillcrest Hospital. “It has been exciting to see how much relationships like the one we have with the Cavs have evolved over the years. The renewal of this partnership reflects both of our organizations’ continued commitment to Northeast Ohio, with a shared focus on fitness and health.”

Ten years ago, the $25 million investment Cavs chairman Dan Gilbert made to build Cleveland Clinic Courts reflected his commitment to grow and impact a championship culture for the team and players. Today, the 2016 NBA Champion Cavaliers are a testament to that vision.
