Why The Cleveland Cavaliers Do The Deal
Some will say that Kuzma may not be the right wing for this group.
After all, the Cavs have plenty of offensive firepower. They may be better served to land a more traditional 3-and-D wing. Kuzma is fine in both areas, but not elite in either.
On the other hand, he is a strong shot creator. Kuzma offers more offensive value than a typical 3-and-D. Perhaps the Cavaliers ought to value that.
How will opposing defenses manage a team where Kuzma is the third or fourth offensive option? They already struggle to contain the Garland-Mitchell backcourt – how will they fare when Kuzma is a bail-out option?
