2019 NBA Mock Draft: Cleveland Cavaliers find taker for JR Smith’s contract
By Mike Graham
Picks 21-25
21. Oklahoma City-Cameron Johnson-F-North Carolina-Thunder are rumored to be shopping this pick for cap relief, if it’s kept, it makes sense to add a shooter to their bench.
22. Boston-Ty Jerome-G-Virginia-Jerome as a backup would do well in Boston, high IQ, and provides shooting to a backcourt that can use it.
23. Memphis-Grant Williams-F-Tennessee-This pick was just acquired for Mike Conley, The Grizz continue to rebuild the roster with Williams who they hope can fill a PJ Tucker role. on defense, and maybe a Boris Diaw like role on offense.
24. Philadelphia-Kevin Porter Jr-G-USC-With concerns over discipline and injuries at USC, Porter is falling, and may slip even further on draft night, he does have big upside though, and would be a decent fit with the Sixers.
25. Portland-Nic Claxton-C-Georgia-Claxton off the bench would be a decent fit for the Blazers as an upside gamble behind Zach Collins, who are unsure when Nurkic will return.
