Cleveland Cavaliers may be interested in Avery Bradley
During the fall exhibition season, the Golden State Warriors waived veteran guard Avery Bradley. Two days later the Los Angeles Lakers picked him up.
It was thought to be a low-key but solid signing; Bradley had played a key role for them when they won the NBA championship in 2020.
He was a little inconsistent this season, and his defense didn’t seem to be what it was two seasons ago, but, statistically, he was solid. He shot 39% from 3-point range.
Bradley is not sure if he’ll stay with the Purple and Gold, and if he doesn’t, he may be on his way to the Midwest.
Via Right Down Euclid:
“Other than that, the (Cleveland) Cavaliers can play around with veteran minimum deals to round out their roster as well. According to sources, that’s a realistic path where Ricky Rubio could reunite with Cleveland. If not there, names worth watching include Avery Bradley, Raul Neto and Elfrid Payton.”
One of the Cavs’ biggest needs is quality depth in the backcourt and at the wing spot. They also need a veteran ball-handling guard off the bench who can help keep things afloat when rising star Darius Garland isn’t on the floor.
Perhaps Bradley would be a solid addition for a Cleveland team that is on the rise.
