8. Cleveland Cavaliers (via Brooklyn) – Collin Sexton, PG, Alabama

Even if the Cleveland Cavaliers find a way to keep LeBron James, they desperately need help in their backcourt, and Collin Sexton could be the answer.

Sexton isn’t as flashy as Trae Young, but he might be the better overall prospect in the long-run. He’s bigger, stronger and possibly even faster than Young, but he does give up some in terms of an offensive game.

Sexton will come right in and be able to play a role for the Cavs, and will defend like there’ no tomorrow.
