2. Taurean Prince
Prince came to the Cavaliers as part of the mega-trade that landed them Jarrett Allen, and he was solid (10.1 points per game; 41.5 percent from 3-point range) over 29 games after the trade. But his season was shortened by an ankle injury that needed surgery, and even at a relatively young age still (27) he may not be part of the long-term plans in Cleveland.
Prince is on the books as the second-highest-paid player for the Cavaliers next season ($13 million). His projected role will make it hard to justify that salary, and with 2021-22 as the final year of his contract, he might appeal to a better team that has cap space. Especially one that is looking for a strong wing defender who can eat up minutes and elevate a playoff team. The Cavaliers just aren’t at that stage of their rebuild yet and would be better off trying to turn Prince into future assets.
