How LaMelo Ball’s 2020 NBA Draft rise could impact the Cavaliers

With the primary focus for the Cleveland Cavaliers in coming years seemingly being player development, draft selections are crucial to the team eventually coming a postseason contender once again, and the 2020 NBA Draft, where the Cavs should have no problem in retaining their top 10 protected first-rounder, should be no exception in helping Cleveland’s turnaround efforts.

One prospect that’s slated to be in the 2020 NBA Draft that is generating a ton of buzz is point guard LaMelo Ball.

Ball’s draft stock is skyrocketing and currently, he is reportedly in the mix to be taken number one overall in the next draft, according to ESPN’s Jonathan Givony (subscription required) and as was h/t Heavy.
