## Resource

The Cavs’ front office gambled big this season—trading Isaac Okoro for Lonzo Ball, adding Thomas Bryant and Larry Nance Jr., and drafting Tyrese Proctor—but the strategy backfired. Injuries derailed Lonzo, and a series of questionable trades, including sending De’Andre Hunter for Dennis Schroder and Keon Ellis, and Darius Garland for James Harden, exposed deeper flaws. The team’s lack of depth and dwindling assets, especially on the wing, leave them in a tougher spot. Despite a high payroll, they’re now facing a shortened window for success with fewer options to fix what’s broken. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
