Currently slotted to pick in the second round, 49th overall, finding contributors at this stage in the NBA Draft is what sets the best organizations apart. For the Cleveland Cavaliers, it’d pay dividends for them to do so at that aforementioned draft slot.
Just this past season, second-round pick Jaylin Williams started 36 games for the Oklahoma City Thunder and demonstrated his ability to provide valuable minutes from year one. While it is more unlikely for a team like the Cavaliers with high aspirations, it is not impossible. One of the prospects the Cavs should keep a close eye on is Ben Sheppard from Belmont University.
