Now that the Cleveland Cavaliers have scooped up seven-foot center prospect Evan Mobley at the 2021 NBA Draft, the Toronto Raptors have been given new life in their pursuit of center Jarrett Allen.
Cleveland hoarded centers this past season, eventually winding up trading JaVale McGee and buying out Andre Drummond. They also were part of the multi-team deal involving James Harden and wound up acquiring a former Brooklyn Net in Allen, another center.
Allen just completed his fourth season in the NBA but was never offered a contract extension by Brooklyn in the fall of 2020.
