The Cavaliers aren't done, either. Cleveland is very much still working towards finding a trade partner to assume Lonzo Ball's $10 million salary, per sources.
With today's Jaren Jackson Jr. trade, every single lottery pick from a very successful 2018 draft has been traded. That includes names like Luka, Trae, SGA, Mikal Bridges, Michael Porter Jr., Ayton and now Jackson Jr.
I think they all fit that system. Both DP & AJ has the skillsets to the the go-to perimeter scorer every team needs
I think Booz has a pathway to that too, especially if he can enforce his pace like he does in CBB and doesnโt struggle with the jump in size & athleticism
Booz has the playmaking feel and positional versatility that Jordi and Co. love, as he can initiate and play-make and direct an offense very well despite being the youngest of the 3
Words arenโt enough.
But that doesnโt mean we should EVER be quiet, especially with what is happening in this country.

Massive 3P volume and part of some very successful defensive lineups as of late. Signs of a potential jumbo 3P shooting 2-way initiator.
