The Cleveland Cavaliers need their veterans to set the tone by having an outstanding work ethic, and helping young pieces such as Collin Sexton, Cedi Osman, Ante Zizic and others with the mental side of the game. Brandon Knight, who has had his ups and downs in the NBA but is definitely a talented guard, would seem to have plenty to provide in the leadership department as well, in particular, based on his reported work ethic.
As we’ve touched on previously, Knight and Marquese Chriss arrived in Cleveland near the 2019 NBA trade deadline last month from being dealt by the Houston Rockets in a reported Alec Burks‘ three-team deal with the Sacramento Kings.
