Cleveland Cavaliers: Dante Exum could be a good long-term piece

Dante Exum has been a solid rotational piece for the Cleveland Cavaliers when he’s been available.

When the Cleveland Cavaliers traded for guard Dante Exum in December of last year, most people didn’t think much of it. The Cavs traded away Jordan Clarkson to the Utah Jazz in return for Exum and then, two second-round picks. Clarkson was a big fan favorite in Cleveland, and he was a volume scorer off the bench his whole stint with the Cavs.

But, Clarkson didn’t fit the mold for what Cleveland needed, and he was an expiring player then.
