Cleveland Cavaliers Scribbles: Be patient with Collin Sexton -- Terry Pluto

INDEPENDENCE, Ohio -- Scribbles in my Cleveland Cavaliers notebook after they selected Collin Sexton in the first round of the 2018 NBA Draft on Thursday:

1. The Cavs are likely to have George Hill on the roster next season. The veteran point guard has $19 million left on his contract, and that makes him difficult to trade -- even if LeBron James leaves for another team.

2. Having Hill could be a benefit for Sexton. The new point guard is only 19 years old. Hill can start, and the Cavs can bring Sexton off the bench to supply energy as he learns the NBA game.
