For me as a Lithuanian, it would be so cool to witness the Cavs choosing Domas Sabonis, the youngest and most promising son of Arvydas Sabonis, as well as the No.1 Lithuanian prospect aged 18 and under. He's now 17 years old and somewhere between 6'10-6'11 and playing in Euroleague and Spanish league with grown men (albeit very limited minutes). Maybe by the time he's in the draft, Grant is out and Big Z is the GM, lol.
I have nothing against Jonas as a player. Quite the opposite, would've loved to have him as "Mini-Z" but it wasn't in the cards. And I really loved having Z on the team. As a whole, I'm a big supporter of the basketball community and I'm really sorry that Z couldn't enter the Olympics.
(If it sounds like I'm trying to suck up, I'm not; that's how much I like the country's prospects and their fans)
Either way, while it would be nice to get a good prospect that Z can nurture, we just don't have much going on. Donatas sounds like an interesting prospect, but at this point we just need a center so we can remove the mental hold Jonas has put most of us into. I really do think we can get somebody since we naturally need someone at the position. It's a wait and see direction.
Hope Jonas continues to improve in the meantime (but like most Cavs fans, hopefully not TOO much better than Tristan).
