The Cleveland Cavaliers have opted to remain competitive while investing in their young talent despite LeBron James taking his talents to Hollywood and with that decision comes a direction.
The Cavs, who have four open spots on the roster (three if restricted free agent Rodney Hood re-signs, as he’s widely expected to do), must fill their third-string unit with veterans or a mix of veterans and developmental talent.
The depth that’s needed comes at point guard (where a veteran guard would likely be preferred), the wing (either a shooting guard or small forward) and power forward (where a player could expect to see consistent playing time) and while filling those spots with players who have the right skillset is important, so is filling those spots with players who have the right personality.
