Updated Mar. 4, 2020 10:14 p.m. ET

The Cavaliers' basketball camps for kids will tip off June 9. Throughout the summer, the camp will travel to 17 destinations around Northeast Ohio. Cavs forward Tristan Thompson will make a special appearance at the Baldwin Wallace University camp that runs July 6-10.

The camps are part of the NBA's National Basketball Academy. According to a Cavs press release: "Campers will be teamed up by age, skill and gender when possible, ranging in ages from 7-16 years old. The camp curriculum will feature skill development stations such as shot mechanics, ball handling, passing, defense and rebounding. Campers' progress will be tested by daily skill competitions, 3-on-3 and 5-on-5 games, and each camp will feature guest speakers to engage and motivate the youngsters. Participants will receive a personal basketball, wristband, t-shirt, complimentary ticket to a 2014-15 regular season Cavs game and a chance to be part of a unique game-day experience."
