The Cleveland Cavaliers have lost their superstar LeBron James but, while trying to remain relevant, they may have created another Big 3.
A new era has started for the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Now that LeBron James has officially departed, the reality is the that the Cavs need to rebuild going forward.
Or, is the reality that the Cavs have the next Big 3 in Cleveland and that it just needs time to blossom into something unique and special?
We know that Kevin Love is a proven All-Star in the league, and with the absence of LeBron, we can expect Love to put up even better numbers. This year Love could easily average a 20-point double-double, similar figures to those from when he was the only true star in Minnesota.
Rodney Hood, who the Cleveland Cavaliers are looking to re-sign for three years, put up solid numbers in Utah (averaging 16.8 points per game) before being traded to Cleveland.
Lastly, the eighth overall pick in the 2018 NBA Draft, Collin Sexton has proven so far to be a star quality player after a great Summer League and hopes to continue his production into this season.
Each of the aforementioned players has tangible skills that can form to the next Big3 in Cleveland. It boils down to if these players mesh together and live up to their potential.
