CLEVELAND -- J.R. Smith can being launching away for the Cavaliers.After sitting out most of training camp, the free agent shooting guard re-signed Saturday with the defending NBA champions, who now have all their starting pieces in place to begin defending their title.Smith made a franchise record 204 3-pointers last season and was a major contributor during the Cavs run to the first championship by a Cleveland team since 1964. His agents were in a stalemate with the Cavs for weeks, unable to come to terms on a deal to keep him in Cleveland.But the sides were able to come to terms Friday on a four-year, $57 million contract, a person with direct knowledge of the negotiations told the Associated Press on Friday night. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the teams policy is not to divulge contract terms.Smiths deal guarantees him more than $45 million in the first three years of the deal, the $15 million per season he was looking for when negotiations opened this summer. If he stays four seasons, he will get $57 million.Bringing J.R. back as part of our core group was a priority for us, Cavs general manager David Griffin said. Hes a special part of this family and we are very pleased to have reached an agreement that we all can feel good about. We know he cant wait to get back on the court with his brothers and we are certain that everyone in this organization and city feels the same way.Smith is expected to practice Sunday and he could play in the preseason finale Tuesday night in Columbus against Washington. The Cavs open the regular season on Oct. 25 against New York.The 31-year-old Smith has become not only a valuable player, but one of the most popular among Clevelands fan base. The tattooed-adorned Smith, nicknamed Swish by his teammates and fans, was a huge hit when he rode shirtless in the teams championship parade last June. Smith has also been a regular at Indians games in the past month.He averaged 12.4 points and shot 40 percent on 3-pointers in 77 games regular-season games. At 6-foot-6, he was also one of the teams best defenders, able to handle smaller guards on the perimeter.When the Cavs came back to beat Golden State 3-1 in the NBA Finals, Smith made two critical 3-pointers in the opening minutes of the second half in Game 7 to spark Clevelands rally.Joe Flacco Womens Jersey .

At one point Sunday he was tied for 14th after not finishing lower than 13th in any tournament this year.A few hours later, Langer had outlasted Kevin Sutherland and Woody Austin in a playoff and was celebrating his fourth PGA Tour Champions victory this season and 29th overall on the 50-and-over tour.I blew tournaments when I had a lead and Ive come from seven behind, so you just never know, Langer said.Langer made a 3-foot birdie putt on the first hole of a playoff with Austin and Sutherland to win the Boeing Classic for the second time. A day after his 59th birthday, Langer birdied the par-5 18th in regulation for a 5-under 67 to match Austin and Sutherland at 13-under 203 at TPC Snoqualmie Ridge. Austin also had a 67, and Sutherland shot 64, the low round of the week.It took a special stretch for Langer to recover from a shaky front nine where he needed a few lengthy par putts to stay on the edge of contention. Langer went out in 1-over 37, but played the back nine in 6-under 30, also making birdies on Nos. 10-13 and 15.When he gets hot with that broom, Austin said in reference to Langers putter, you cant beat that broom.Langer tied Lee Trevino for second on the career victory, still well behind leader Hale Irwin at 45.

Theres still a little bit of life left in me.Gene Sauers, the second-round leader and U.S. Senior Open winner two weeks ago, shot a 72 to finish a shot out of the playoff. Sauers started his day with two straight birdies to reach 14 under. But he struggled on the back nine, bogeying three of the first five holes and allowed the chase group to catch up. Sauers was still in contention until making bogey at the 17th after his tee shot came up short. Sauers made birdie at the 18th to finish alone in fourth.While Langer rolled through the back nine, Austin was hot on the front nine going out in 32. His first mistake of the round came at the 15th when he went for the green in two on the par 5 unaware he was in a tie for the lead because electronic scoreboards on the back nine were not working. Austin found a bunker and ended up making bogey.I would have laid up to the right for sure, absolutely, no question, said Austin, who birdied Nos. 17 and 18 to get into the playoff.Sutherland started the day seven shots behind Sauers and made eight birdies with no bogeys in his round. Sutherland was attempting to win his first stroke-play tournament on either the regular or senior tour. ' ' '
