Life has probably moved quickly for Evan Mobley since being taken with the No. 3 overall pick in July. But on the other end of this weekend, the rubber’s about to hit the road.
The Cavaliers highest draft pick of the post-LeBron Era, Mobley is the centerpiece of three seven-footers that weren’t on the roster on opening night last year. The Wine & Gold went big this offseason, and all eyes will be on the 20-year-old southern Californian when Camp tips off on Monday.
Mobley was a two-way star at center in a single season at USC, but he’ll be at the power forward spot in Cleveland, starting alongside Jarrett Allen in the middle.
