Zach Edey is going to be a guy that NBA teams can trust to contribute in a big way on offense, it'll just be extremely matchup dependent whether he can stay on the floor on defense.

Jaime Jaquez Jr. Has Been Waiting For This

by Kevin Yeung

Jaime Jaquez Jr. is playing meaningful playoff minutes as a rookie, showing that craft has perhaps become an underrated quality in the draft, compared to more traditional traits such as wingspan, athleticism or shooting.

Panic! In The NBA Playoffs

After a dull weekend of Game 1s, a doubleheader between Knicks/Sixers and then Nuggets/Lakers delivered an excess of drama. You never know when a basketball cult might be formed or broken.

On the Cavaliers doing to the Magic what the Knicks did to them last season, Milwaukee saving up their competitive juices, New York's rabid hustle cult, Minnesota vanquishing their playoff inexperience, a nerve-inducing game in OKC and more.

Just this once, I'll overlook that he's a UCLA guy. Really quality move.
Article also notes Drummond's generosity and the players' overall support for some of the staff in these tough times. Looks like some of this is old news but the full scope of their work is clear now and recently the subject of some Cavs-based media coverage. Well done. Like your new rookie a lot btw. Good luck this season.

I saw this last year and thought it was a classy move at the time.

Jarret Allen isn’t winning you anything. Garland won’t show up in the playoffs. Mobley is a glorified dunk man. Mitchell has some experience but is a liability on defense. To me, the Cavs are a treadmill team.

I like it when these things are done in silence and found out later because of the noise made by the recipients of such generosities
Love is smart guy but he clearly cares about people too.

Yep, we heard about it right away, and I think it helped encourage other players follow suit with similar gestures. For instance, I think Blake Griffin did the same shortly after.
