CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The Cleveland Cavaliers didn't know what to expect from Cedi Osman this season.
He showed exciting flashes as a rookie, earning plenty of praise from old teammate LeBron James. But Osman's playing time was sporadic, as he averaged 11.0 minutes and started just 12 of 61 games.
His production fluctuated as well, ranging anywhere from eye-opening -- recording back-to-back double-digit scoring games in early March -- to alarming, with a 33-minute clunker late in the season against Philadelphia where the coaching staff lost faith in the overmatched rookie.
So heading into Year Two, there were more questions than answers.
