It’s seems increasingly likely that the Cleveland Cavaliers will end up selecting Evan Mobley with the #3 pick in the 2021 NBA Draft, of which is set to commence on July 29.
According to recent reports, as KJG’s Justin Brownlow noted, Cleveland is likely to be “zeroing in” on Mobley, and Jalen Green/his camp are rumored to favor the Houston Rockets as his destination over the Cavaliers, anyway.
So, although Cleveland could potentially look to select Jalen Suggs, or perhaps to a lesser extent, Jonathan Kuminga, for instance, at that spot, I’d expect Mobley to be the pick there.
