Maybe the issue was exactly that. He wanted a leave so that he could go deal with the personal situation in Honduras, and Cavs were going to give that to him. But they weren't super thrilled about him going to play for this other club in the meantime. Maybe they were reluctant to say publicly that he was leaving as they were trying to get a loan fee?

I'm purely guessing here. I just think there was probably a reason why they weren't entirely forthcoming here, and it wasn't just to be difficult.
Possibly. I am guessing that there is/was a permanent sale lined up, and now something has happened behind the scenes and the club/league are scrambling to sort it out.

I think that any talk of a leave of absence, loan, temporary, etc. are just red herrings and/or buying time.

Also just guessing, with no source other than my own gut.
