Cleveland Cavaliers: Brandon Knight is looking for rebirth

After being selected eighth overall in the 2011 NBA Draft, Brandon Knight spent his first two seasons with the Detroit Pistons. Though Knight averaged 13.3 points and 4.0 assists on 36.7 percent shooting from three-point range, Knight was traded to the Milwaukee Bucks in the summer of 2013.

Knight’s arguably most significant moment from his time in Detroit was him getting crossed up by former Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Kyrie Irving.

Once in Milwaukee, Knight once again performed well, putting up 17.9 points and 4.9 assists per game in year one with the Bucks, per Basketball Reference.
