Summary
Cleveland’s playoff dreams ended in a brutal sweep by the Knicks, raising serious questions about the future of James Harden and Donovan Mitchell after a high-stakes trade meant to maximize Mitchell’s prime. Despite coach Kenny Atkinson’s hot seat, the Cavs are giving him another year — fresh off Coach of the Year honors — but expect major roster upheaval this offseason. Jarrett Allen, a defensive anchor and trade target, could be headed to Chicago, Detroit, or even LA in a sign-and-trade with LeBron’s return to Cleveland. With the Bulls’ draft pick and Pistons’ defensive needs, Allen’s affordable contract makes him a perfect fit — and a potential cornerstone for a new era in Cleveland.
