5.  Cleveland Cavaliers

The Cleveland Cavaliers‘ offseason moves include adding promising youngster Collin Sexton of Alabama via the NBA Draft, bringing back the lovable veteran Channing Fyre and extending all-star Kevin Love. On the surface, those three moves don’t look too bad. In fact, they’re quite favorable, depending on what you think about Love.

But the sheer fact that they lost the NBA’s best player means they have to be in the conversation for one of the worst NBA offseasons.

LeBron’s absence will be thoroughly felt throughout northern Ohio as Cleveland will likely go from the NBA Finals to the draft lottery.
