What’s fair to expect from Taurean Prince for the Cleveland Cavaliers?

Taurean Prince was acquired recently by the Cleveland Cavaliers as part of the blockbuster trade centered on James Harden heading to the Brooklyn Nets that also netted Cleveland Jarrett Allen. Both Prince and Allen are former Nets.

The Cavs didn’t get a player of Harden’s magnitude in the deal, but they looked to have gotten a nice haul.

Cavs general manager Kolby Altman managed to get a talented and ascending big in Allen and a capable wing in Prince for Dante Exum, a 2022 first-round pick via the Milwaukee Bucks (unprotected) and a 2024 seound-round pick (the lesser between theirs and the Utah Jazz).
