Over the weekend, the Cleveland Cavaliers acquired sharpshooter Max Strus via sign-and-trade from the Miami Heat, in what was a three-team deal that included the San Antonio Spurs, too. In the deal, Cleveland would send Cedi Osman, Lamar Stevens and a future second-round pick to San Antonio, and a future second-round pick to Miami.
Strus would receive a four-year, $63 million deal from the Cavaliers, and he was Cleveland’s biggest free agency signing, and in the process, should be a key piece for the Wine and Gold moving forward.
Strus had long been a rumored top free agency target for the Cavaliers, and his multifaceted shooting should give Cleveland quite the off-ball weapon to utilize in a variety of ways.
