Cleveland Cavaliers — Cedi Osman

After playing overseas, Cedi Osman has spent the last three seasons with the Cleveland Cavaliers, playing his rookie season with LeBron James still in town.

Osman has continued to improve, yet, like Markkanen, has a down season last year. He went from averaging 13 points per game down to 11 per game this past season. With Kevin Porter Jr., Osman isn’t quite as much the focus at the three in Cleveland.

Osman would be the leader of the second unit for Golden State if they could get him at a discount, and shooting over 38 percent from deep this past season, Osman would be able to thrive with the starters as well since that unit has the playmaking it takes to make any shooter an elite asset.

The 25-year-old has room to grow in his game, and at 6-foot-7, he should have the tools in the bag to be a solid defender as well. He has the skill and the opportunity, and with a new up-and-coming core in Cleveland, they may be willing to part ways with Osman a bit easier.
