According to Basketball Insider’s Alex Kennedy, the Cleveland Cavaliers will be one of 15 teams sending scouts to the first IMG Academy Professional Basketball Combine as they look to find the right player to select in the 2017 NBA Draft.
The combine, which features players who will be in second-round consideration, is perfect for the Cleveland Cavaliers as the Cavs don’t have a pick in the draft. The only way for them to acquire a pick would be via trade, which is unlikely, and by buying a second round pick from a team. That’s what the Cavs did last year when they selected point guard Kay Felder from Oakland University.
