Cavs: 2 realistic expectations for potential FA target Josh Hart

#2: Hart would be a solid driving presence and overall spark plug for the Cavs

Secondly, while Hart is not a player that you’d be counting on for key scoring for extended stretches, he could be a decent catch-and-shoot player, even being somewhat streaky (34.8 percent from three lifetime). He has hit 39.3 percent from the corner in his four seasons, in fairness, even with that only having been 30.3 percent last season.

On-ball though, he could provide a solid driving presence for Cleveland, with his ability to attack the basket coming off of handoffs getting downhill and he’s more than capable of finishing through contact.

Hart has good body control as well, and his cutting feel in both settled situations and in transition could work well with the likes of Garland and secondary playmakers, such as Sexton and/or Larry Nance Jr.

And lastly, from more so an overall perspective, with Hart’s defensive feel/activity, his rebounding and transition capabilities, and him seemingly being an exemplary teammate that constantly gives max effort, he could be a spark plug-type player for the Cavaliers.

In that way, I’d imagine he could end up being a great glue guy for the Wine and Gold in coming years; him being very close with Nance, per Fedor’s report, drives that point home to me, too, considering Nance is such a team-first dude as well.

So to reiterate, from my perspective, Hart could very well be a really nice addition for Cleveland, mostly in a bench contributor role.
