Cade Cunningham on 2021 NBA Lottery: ‘Don’t let me go to Cleveland’
The 2021 NBA Draft class will likely go down as one of the better ones in recent memory, with Cade Cunningham, Evan Mobley, and Scottie Barnes all looking like stars in their own right.

It’s no secret that the Cleveland Cavaliers entered the season with high expectations for their 24-year-old star.

Injured Cavs guard Darius Garland was ‘moving pretty well’ in recent workout
The Cleveland Cavaliers haven’t had good injury luck so far this season. Missing All-Star point guard Darius Garland for 11 of the 14 games they’ve played has played a large role in that.
