Why The Cleveland Cavaliers Do The Deal
LeVert may have more room to break out than Bojan Bogdanovic, but at this moment, the latter offers more in terms of winning basketball games.
Furthermore, he’s the type of floor-spacing wing the Cavaliers missed in 2021-22. In all likelihood, Bogdanovic would steal a few minutes from the non-shooting Isacc Okoro and the miscast Lauri Markannen.
Granted, he’s a worse defender than Okoro. With that said, the Cavaliers are uniquely built to weather that shortcoming. Their frontcourt duo of Jarred Allen and Evan Mobley is one of the best in the NBA.
Bogdanovic may not be the piece that vaults the Cavaliers into title contention. With that said, he should help them in the playoff race. Sometimes, rebuilding teams need to walk before they can fly.
