Cleveland’s big offseason gamble: they landed Peyton Watson via sign-and-trade, sending Max Strus to LA for the pieces. Watson, who exploded last year with career highs in points, rebounds, and assists, now gets a four-year, $88M deal — a steep price for a still-developing player. The Hawks were reportedly hot on him, intrigued by his two-way flashes and scoring surge without Jokic, but passed — choosing flexibility over risk. Questions linger: his passing is raw, free throw % is low, and his three-point volume isn’t elite. Cleveland’s bet? Big, bold, and it’ll be watched closely.
