While there is still over a month of the NBA season left, and free agency doesn’t start for another four months, it’s never too early to be thinking about the future of the Cleveland Cavaliers. After this season, the Cavaliers will own all of their first round picks going forward, and will have little incentive to continue their losing ways. With an owner who isn’t known for his patience, and a general manager on his second coach, it wouldn’t be a huge surprise to see the Cavaliers try to make a leap towards postseason contention.
While the Cavaliers have invested time an draft picks in their backcourt, and have a fairly deep group of big men, they have arguably the thinnest group of wings in the league.
