Darius Garland had a fairly underwhelming rookie season in the scoring sense, but he’s fully capable of a bounce back in 2020-21.
Nobody can say that Darius Garland really lived up to his billing as what could’ve been a knockdown shooter off-the-bounce for the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Leading into last season, it was evident that Garland’s shooting, both off-the-catch and off-the-bounce, was the reason Cleveland drafted him fifth overall in the 2019 NBA Draft.
While Garland gets somewhat of a pass to me, given that he only played five games in his collegiate career at Vanderbilt due to a meniscus tear, we’ll need to see him improve his efficiency in year two.
