He replaces Dell Demps, who left to become general manager of the New Orleans Hornets last month. Ferry, who also played 10 seasons for the Cavs, served two seasons as the Spurs director of pro player personnel after concluding his 13-year NBA playing career on the 2003 Spurs that won the NBA championship. He was part of the front office in 2005, when the Spurs also won the NBA title.
