De’Andre Hunter was traded from the Atlanta Hawks to the Cleveland Cavaliers. It seems like the bigger role for him was probably in Atlanta. But the Hawks hadn’t made much out of him for several years already and it’s probably best for Hunter if he gets a fresh start. He’ll have to learn the Cavs system quickly because he’ll be expected to play minutes for a contending Cavs team that’ll likely have a deep playoff run and possibly win the East. For now, Hunter is backing up Evan Mobley at power forward, but I think he has the potential to be the starting small forward if not this year then next. 2/10/2025
