4 players the Cleveland Cavaliers should draft tonight in the 2023 NBA Draft
By Chad Porto
The Cleveland Cavaliers need to draft one of these four men in the 2023 NBA Draft.
The 2023 NBA Draft is here! The Cleveland Cavaliers, like the 0ther 29 teams in the NBA, are hoping to land someone tonight who can help fill holes on the team and help fortify their fortune for future success. The Cavs don’t have a first-round pick as of the write-up, but that could change in a few hours.
So for that reason, we’re only going to be looking at second round picks that the Cavs should draft if and when they fall to them in the draft. Right now the Cavs pick at No. 49, or the 19th pick in the second-round. That means the best players aren’t going to be there, but some may fall to them.
But before we look at the players the Cavs should draft, there’s one name I want to talk about that I hope they sign after the draft.
Undrafted Free Agent – Drew Timme
Now, I don’t know that Gonzaga’s Drew Timme isn’t going to be drafted, but I do think if he is it’ll be after the Cavs are on the clock. He’s not overly athletic, though he’s got great foot work, and he isn’t known for any one thing. He’s not a great rebounder and he’s not a great three-point shooter, but he’s physical. He’ll bang with guys downlow. He’s 6’11 and nearly 240, and with an NBA workout routine, could probably hit 250 or more of pure muscle.
The Cavs need a big-bodied guy who can throw his weight around and that could very easily be Timme.
