The Cleveland Cavaliers should not try to bring back Deng Adel

The Cleveland Cavaliers will have time next season to give young players a flyer in regards to two-way deals and/or 10-day contracts, because it’s hard to envision the team realistically competing for an Eastern Conference postseason berth.

Although Cleveland was more respectable when Kevin Love was healthier and when he played considerable minutes post-All-Star break, it’s unclear whether or not that will translate next year, let alone if Love can stay healthy (he only appeared in 22 games in 2018-19, per Basketball Reference).

Given that sort of thing, Cleveland should give other young players a chance to show if they can pop in limited time on a two-way or 10-day deal, and perhaps bring them back if they really do well or show a unique skill set offensively or defensively.
