The Cleveland Cavaliers recently selected what could be a potential superstar big in the 2021 NBA Draft at #3 overall in Evan Mobley, who had a terrific lone collegiate season at USC.
Mobley had 16.4 points, 8.7 rebounds, 2.9 blocks and 2.4 assists per contest with the Trojans in 2020-21, and was a crucial reason why they made a run to the Elite Eight.
After rumors of the Cavaliers potentially dealing it/there being suggestions of hypothetical tradedowns that the Cavs themselves didn’t reportedly consider it seemed, they made a smart decision in simply selecting Mobley.
