Will there be a new hierarchy in the Eastern Conference soon? Could it include a Cleveland Cavaliers team that does not include LeBron James? Since James left for Los Angeles, the Cavs have rebuilt and could be an intriguing team in the 2022-23 NBA season.
Cleveland began the season near the top of the conference but fell off a bit throughout 82 games. This does not change that the organization is full of young talent that should stick around for years to come.
Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen man the frontcourt and suddenly, the Cavs are a force. It begins with Darius Garland, who is expected to sign a max contract with the Cavs. Garland stepped in with Collin Sexton on the shelf and completely took over offensively.
With players like Sexton and Kevin Love, Cleveland has chances to make even more moves in the offseason if they want.
