Samardo Samuels

A monster on defense and a rebounding force, Samuels can play both the four or the five. Due to a vast amount of frontcourt injuries last season, he averaged 26.2 minutes, 11.9 points and 5.8 rebounds per game in the month of February. If the Cavaliers’ frontcourt ends up with the same bad luck this year, Samuels will again be a solid waiver-wire pickup.

If Samuels can make the Cavs roster to start the season, don’t look for him to see much time on the court. At this time, he is essentially a player that provides the Cavs with depth.
