Former Cleveland Cavaliers center Timofey Mozgov has expressed disappointment after being excluded from the team's recent ten-year championship anniversary reunion in Europe.
The event, hosted by LeBron James, was a multi-country luxury vacation featuring core members of the historic 2015–16 championship roster.
Kevin Love, J. R.
Smith, Richard Jefferson, Channing Frye, and Tristan Thompson attended, with Iman Shumpert and Matthew Dellavedova joining later.
Mozgov, now 39, played in 13 games during that legendary postseason run.
He told Russian outlet Sport Express that no one from the title-winning squad contacted him about the trip.
"Yes, I saw the video of that party. No one wrote or called me.
If I'd been invited, I'd have gladly joined. Of course, I'd have loved to be there too, to drink some wine," Mozgov said.
The reunion also sparked social media drama. J.
R. Smith claimed Kyrie Irving had been invited but allegedly ignored the team, saying Irving "ghosted."
Irving did not respond publicly but posted a quiet appreciation graphic on Instagram featuring the entire championship roster.
Mozgov played eight NBA seasons, peaking as a vital starting center during Cleveland's championship window.
He also played for the New York Knicks, Denver Nuggets, Los Angeles Lakers, and Brooklyn Nets.
