Agbaji is fair value for 14.
They went win now in the first, then took three 2nds with no hope of any of them helping near term.
They ignored their biggest need - someone to guard big SFs (Tatum, Butler, etc.), taking a draft and stash project C when Liddell or Brown were available to them in the 2nd round.
The complicated the already over crowded SG position, and may have given Sexton one last push toward wanting out the door.
couldn't disagree more. Agbaji is exactly what they needed as a 3 and D wing. Between he and Okoro they should have the guys needed to defend better wings. Also, Mobley is built just like the bigger wings (6'8" 230) and for a 2nd rounder that's great value. He needs to get in much better shape but assuming he has any work ethic he should be in the rotation eventually. Diop is a guy who could contribute right away as Allen's backup or spot start in case of injury and he's got a pretty decent amount of upside. When teams have core stars, these are the types of drafts that fill out the roster and are underrated. Don't forget they have plenty of assets to work with to acquire help with Love and LeVert expirings (should they be deemed expendable). This is a very interesting Cavs team for a change.
