The Cleveland Cavaliers should be prioritizing the defensive end in the upcoming draft.

It’s no secret that the Cleveland Cavaliers need to strive to improve on defense next season. The Cavs have ended out having the NBA’s worst defensive rating each of the past two seasons, and in the upcoming draft, putting the emphasis on that end would be a smart move.

The Wine and Gold are set to have the fifth overall selection in the 2020 NBA Draft, and at that spot, they should be able to add a high level defensive piece.
