CLE does save a lot of money, if this gets them under the 2nd apron then maybe it's worth doing to facilitate something else. On it's own, seems like there will be other options. Not ignoring the pick, but Koby is incapable of finding a rotation caliber player outside the top 10, so pretty useless in CLE's hands.

I'd also argue that Cleveland would be losing toughness that they sorely lack. You move Strus, and who is out there with physical play on the wing?

Only Okoro... who has obvious offensive limitations.

Cleveland says no. I like Strus.
