The Cleveland Cavaliers will bring guard Markel Brown to training camp, according to The Vertical's Shams Charania. Brown has agreed to a deal with the Cavaliers that will put him up against guys like Cory Jefferson and DeAndre Liggins as he battles for a roster spot.
The former Brooklyn Nets guard has not made much of a mark in the NBA, but he fits the profile of someone who could potentially fill a role for the Cavaliers. He's more athletic than any of their guards, and he can provide the defensive intensity that they lost when Matthew Dellavedova went to the Milwaukee Bucks.
