Rubio (personal) agreed to a contract buyout with the Cavaliers on Thursday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Rubio has been away from the Cavaliers all season after he stepped away frwom the team prior to training camp to focus on his mental health. Though the veteran point guard is in the second season of a three-year, $18.44 million contract, he'll formally part ways with the club and likely bring an end to his 12-year NBA career. Rubio hasn't disclosed whether he plans to play professional basketball again, but if he does, it will likely be for a club in his native Spain. The Cavaliers can now use the open roster spot to add depth at guard or in the frontcourt while Darius Garland (jaw) and Evan Mobley (knee) are both without clear timelines to return to game action.
