Fedor quoted an anonymous executive from another team as saying he thinks the Cavs will trade the pick. Gilbert wants them to make a playoff run this year and there probably won't be anybody at #5 that can make much of a difference as a rookie.So I guess you could say summer camp was a success.
Garland, Porer, Sexton all seemed to have put in the work and significantly improved aspects of their game. Most importantly Windler seems like Kyle Korver reincarnated. Coach got a chance to do some work with different schemes.
So where do we go from here?
Do we really want to add another rookie to this mix? I'm gonna say it now. Trade the pick. With all the coaches moving around, and the cap probably moving down, I think there will be plenty of interesting names on the market.
Milwaukee's #1 next year could be a lottery pick if Giannis leaves. I'd hold on to that if I were the Cavs. I'd look to trade the #5 and Cedi. I don't see a use for Exum since we have Sexton and Porter at the 2 so if somebody can use a $9.6M expiring contract he could be thrown in as well.
But they might be better off just using the #5 to draft a replacement for Love, who has two years left on his deal. They're thinking Toppin could be that guy.
