Cavs Linked To Sneaky PERFECT Trade...

Reports have linked the Cavs to a perfect sign in trade for this 6'8 shooting guard in small forward that I believe will play a Pivotal role for the Cleveland Cavaliers. I think that this player could start. I think that he could be the Cleveland Cavaliers Jaden McDaniels We're gonna dive into that today at Cavs digesting us so much for joining me the sport has been crazy So make sure you guys subscribe to stay updated with all the Cavaliers news All the guys that watch are not subbed, but you guys have been killing it recently So I'm sure that percentage is gone a lot down. Thank you all so much I want to dive straight in to the news per Chris Fidor Good Cavaliers trustworthy insider Report the Cavs have expressed interest in Peyton Watson per at Chris Fidor boom If you are unfamiliar at Peyton Watson's game That's why you come on to the Cavs digest channel because it's time to talk about my boy Peyton Watson from the Denver Nuggets He's currently a free agent So what the Nuggets are looking for right now are signed in trades for Peyton Watson That's what they would be Getting for if they were if the Cavs were to get Peyton Watson would be a sign and trade type of deal Where they of course send something to them and I have a little bit of a framework built For the Cavs to where they can acquire Peyton Watson, but let's take a look at his stats here. So you guys can get a general background He's a 15 point scorer, but to assist in five rebounds a game He has a 6-8 shooting guard small forward who was only 23 years old. He was a 30th overall pick in the 2022 draft see I know my stuff 50% from the field 41% from 3 averaging 1.1 steel per game and fun fact He's actually a great perimeter defender Peyton Watson would literally be a stud in the wine and gold. I mean a stud Genuinely, I would start him at the small Ford if we made this trade right now, not not joking at all I fully see this guy being the starting small forward for the Cavaliers if they pull the trigger and make the trade Of course as we continue going through this video I'm gonna dive into what I believe is going to be the best framework for this trade and how the Cavs can acquire Peyton Watson But as of right now Let's just continue talking about his game for a few more minutes or for a few more seconds as I said 15 point score Very very efficient. We're talking about a 60% true shooting percentage with a 41% from 3 and he's a 6-8 shooting guard So he has the height and the size to play small forward. He does play small forward for Denver sometimes But Denver has been looking for a sign and trade and fun fact per sham Sharania. I'll show you guys this They actually decreased their asking price for Peyton Watson Let me show you right here The Denver Nuggets have decreased their asking price and Peyton Watson's side and trades Frameworks to the following per at sham Sharania, so I feel like it's pretty trustworthy, right? One high level player one first round pick from the Cavs I got a guy who I think is a pretty high level player And I think you've already traded so many picks if you want to win now, you got to trade one more Let me tell you who I think we're gonna trade for this the Cleveland Cavaliers want to add an immediate an immediate starting level player who can play great defense and is above size for his position and Of course can shoot at a high level a high 3 and D player Think mr. Max truce say goodbye now, although this trade it did fail because the Nuggets are over the luxury tax threshold It's a sign and trade. So the whole there's a big difference with it. Okay, you would also be trading a first round pick The Cavs first round picks are very limited because they've traded a lot for Mitchell appreciate trade some for DeAndre Hunter So the Cavs first round picks are a little bit limited But nonetheless, I would trade Max truce for and a first round pick for Peyton Watson in a heartbeat I don't know about a heartbeat, but maybe you guys disagree So go ahead and let me know in the comments below truce for Watson Yes, why free s or n for no or give me a full explanation if you like give you a couple seconds to do that All right You should have told me what you think now as I said I would trade truce for Watson because you get younger you get bigger you get better Defensively and you get a high efficient three-point shooter who also is an NBA champion I'm pretty sure he won in his rookie season with the Denver Nuggets if my timeline is correct You have a lot going for you for Peyton Watson You have a lot and as I said, although he has been a backup and he's only 23 years old He has been a backup for the Nuggets. This is a 15 point scorer. This is a great defender This is a pure baller. Don't worry. I have Max truce of stats in case you want to just compare the two here So truce is a worse score slightly better rebounder slightly better passer, I guess He's a little less efficient from the field, he's a little less efficient from three He gets less steals and less blocks Peyton Watson gets more blocks and more steals. He's also taller He's also younger. He's also the same price You might have to give away a first round pick I'm sure But it's not like we value first round picks anyways Because Kobe Allman is the guy who that makes all the decisions and if you know anything about the Cavaliers You know that they will never develop from the draft until Kobe Allman is gone And I will sit here and I will stay on the hill the Cavs are not going to develop via the draft so although I value first round picks highly because of teams like the Thunder and the Spurs I Am willingly going to trade a first round pick and Max truce for a 23 year old Baller for a 23 year old immediate starter because as of right now truce is the starting small forward Peyton Watson is a better basketball NBA player than Max truce guys as I said the only thing that is reluctant because I actually saw a report from the Cavs are about the Cavs that the reason that they Aren't making trades as of this second is because they're reluctant to trade Shrews or Schroeder and a pick they don't want to trade those picks, right? So that is a little lackluster But nonetheless nonetheless, I was I think these are his playoff stats. But anyways, um Nonetheless, no, it's not nonetheless Trading away at first is okay If you're going to get an immediate starter whose value is a first round pick anyways, right? You might be losing Max truce, but you're getting better at that position. Anyways, and a first round pick is what? Peyton Watson was So you're basically not really getting rid of too much And as I said the Cleveland Cavaliers first round pick history as of late It's not like they've been playing a lot of those guys or really I've had many first round picks Jalen Tyson's only one that stands out of course earlier Mobley and Garland and stuff like that But those guys are a little bit past a little bit ago now The Cavs first round picks are just basically useless at this point And is it and it was also trading your own first round pick that might be like between the 25th and 30 30 range anyways so I Personally really like Peyton Watson. I I think Peyton Watson is pivotal I think that he is a day one starter for the Cavs and I think that based on what the Cavs have done this offseason with his own ya With missing out on LeBron and they haven't and they haven't done much. I think that this is the move that changes their whole Vibe in the offseason. I think that you get a proven young Scoring and defensive threat something that the Cavs have missed at the shooting guard and wing spot Like this is really something that they crave. This is something that the Cleveland Cavaliers Desperately need is a guy like Peyton Watson and now once we find out he's available for trade I'm like, okay the Cavs should think about this then a little bit ago We get information that they're interested in him now just cuz they're interested in him does not mean they're going to get him But as the videos title and as I've said, they're linked to a specific player And I think that this trade would bless the Cavaliers I think that Peyton Watson would be a day one starter probably for the Cavs and if he's not gonna start He is going to without a doubt be the backup shooting guard or small forward for the Cavaliers And I don't think that there should be a doubt in our minds that Peyton Watson deserves playing time a lot of playing time in the NBA I Would love it to be included. So let me know I give you guys the breakdown the stats a trade framework What the Nuggets are asking for would you guys pull the trigger on Peyton Watson? What trade would you make if you can't get Peyton Watson if Merrill or Schroeder or Struess? Would have to be a part of a trade like that and at first I'd be willingly I'd be willing to do it I don't know about how high level of a player the Nuggets might think of Struess I'm not sure if the Cavs have the pieces for him, but we'll see drop a comment below what you think of course like this video share this video with your friends and Comment below your thoughts subscribe to the channel.
