Cleveland’s legendary sports team owner Nick Mileti has passed away at the age of 93
CLEVELAND, Ohio - , according to the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Inducted into the inaugural class of the Cavaliers Wall of Honor in 2019, Nick’s legacy is forever etched in the history of our franchise. His journey began as a Cleveland-area lawyer, and in 1968, he took a bold step by purchasing the Cleveland Arena. Just two years later, he led a dedicated group that brought the Cavaliers to life, introducing our team to the NBA as an expansion franchise in 1970.
Nick Mileti changed the course of Cleveland’s sports history, and his passion and commitment will be deeply missed. We extend our heartfelt condolences to his family and friends during this difficult time. His spirit will continue to inspire us, and we will forever honor his memory and the indelible mark he left on our franchise and community.
