On this episode of Locked On Cavs, Danny Cunningham (The Inside Shot, Cleveland Magazine, 92.3 The Fan) provides a comprehensive update on the Cleveland Cavaliers' training camp at IMG Academy. He analyzes the potential starting lineup, featuring Donovan Mitchell, Sam Merrill, De'Andre Hunter, Evan Mobley, and Jarrett Allen, explaining how injuries to key players like Darius Garland and Max Strus have shaped this configuration. Cunningham expresses high expectations for De'Andre Hunter, predicting a standout season as he settles into his natural small forward position. The host also discusses Garland's injury status, suggesting he won't be ready for the season opener. Cunningham explores the team's pace of play, arguing that urgency rather than speed should be the focus. He examines how Hunter's increased comfort and confidence in Cleveland could lead to improved performance, and concludes by looking ahead to the preseason and the strategic implications of recent roster changes.
