This Cleveland Cavaliers 2026-27 season preview starts in Spain. The Cavaliers will hold training camp at the Embassy, a basketball facility in Fuengirola co-designed by former Cavs guard Jose Calderon, running from roughly Sept. 30 through Oct. 5 after a Sept. 28 media day, according to the team’s own camp announcement.
