Summary
Cleveland just signed Meleek Thomas to a four-year, $9.3M deal — a steal for a 34th pick with elite shooting and serious upside. A 15.7 PPG freshman at Arkansas, Thomas can drain threes at 40% and is now primed to learn from Donovan Mitchell and James Harden. With a guaranteed first three years worth $6.4M, the Cavs are betting big on his growth, strength, and defense — all key traits for today’s NBA. He’s ready to develop quietly, knowing his role may be small at first, but his potential? Huge.
