Collin Sexton – Cleveland Cavaliers

While the Cavaliers have had their struggles as a team this season, Collin Sexton has been putting together a fantastic third season in the league. In 39 games this year, Sexton has averaged 24.0 points, 2.8 rebounds, 4.3 assists, 1.1 steals and has shot a career-high 47.7% from the floor and 38.5% from three-point range. 

Not only is he the Cavaliers best player, but Collin Sexton is only 22-years-old and is going to be a problem for many teams around the league for many years to come. He is one of the best pure scoring guards in the league and at such a young age, the future is really bright for the Cavs young star. 

Over the last few weeks, Collin Sexton has been on an absolute tear and since the end of February, Sexton is averaging 26.3 points, 3.6 rebounds, 4.3 assists and is shooting over 46.7% from the floor!

As a result of how well Collin Sexton has played, the Cavaliers actually have a chance to sneak into one of the play-in games in the Eastern Conference, especially since they are just 3 games back from the Chicago Bulls, who are currently the 10-seed in the East. 

The play of Collin Sexton and the Cavaliers is definitely a storyline to watch during the last few weeks of the regular season, especially since there is an outside shot that he could carry them into the playoffs. Sexton has a very bright future and has the Cavs in a great position to build around him for many years to come.
