Cavaliers DEPTH CHART
26-4 • 1st in EASTERN CONFERENCE
The Cavs experimented with a number of rotations throughout the season, with injuries also playing a significant role. Nonetheless, if we were to pick the team's Sixth Man, it would have to be Larry Nance Jr.
The 6-foot-7 forward/center did have 10 starts during the season, but he primarily served as one of the key players of the team's second unit. Nance usually comes behind Love, but is also well equipped to play the five spot for smaller lineups.
Last season, Nance averaged 10.1 points, 7.3 rebounds, 2.2 assists, and 1.0 steals in 26.3 minutes per game.
During the 2019-20 campaign, the Cavs fielded a starting five of Darius Garland (PG), Collin Sexton (SG), Cedi Osman (SF), Kevin Love (PF), and Andre Drummond (C).
Drummond arrived in Cleveland during the February 2019 trade deadline, taking as the starting five man. Prior to his arrival, it was Tristan Thompson who started at the center position for the Cavs.
Heading into the 2020-21 season, the Cavaliers will likely field a similar starting lineup of Garland, Sexton, rookie Isaac Okoro, Love, and Drummond.
