As we’ve touched on here at KJG recently, the Cleveland Cavaliers haven’t shown a whole lot in terms of wins in NBA Summer League, and that’s been the case in both the Salt Lake City and Las Vegas Summer Leagues.
Cleveland 2019 26th overall draft pick Dylan Windler, along with previous Utah Jazz two-way player Naz Mitrou-Long and fellow Summer League invitee Marques Bolden, have been notable contributors for the most part, though.
The soon-to-be 26-year-old Mitrou-Long, as our own Josh Friedman previously detailed, has made a case at least start out the 2019-20 season as Cleveland’s other two-way player (Dean Wade is reportedly the other going into next season) due to his steady dose of playmaking and shot-creation in leading Cleveland’s offense in Summer League play; it is Summer League, but his experience playing for the Salt Lake City Stars (the Jazz’s G-League affiliate) has clearly paid dividends for him as a pick-and-roll creator/scorer.
