The Cleveland Cavaliers Just Got Better By Drafting Tyrese Proctor

so look I’m not even going to sugarcoat it i did sit down to watch some of the second round of the 2025 NBA draft i spent like 45 minutes on the couch watching a little bit of it and it was like 90% commercials 10% draft it is what it is but I did sit down with a little bit of hope a little optimism especially now that the East is wide open thinking maybe the Cavs would come out of it with something meaningful and look I’ll admit it i talked myself into a few guys i knew better but I still did it i let myself get attached to names to fit to scenarios and when you do that you’re just begging to get heartbroken or just not be happy but I actually thought overall that the Cavs did a pretty good job with what they had only having the 49th overall pick and then obviously number 58 I believe it was i think it was second to last they didn’t have much to work with but I thought they got some potential and I’m not just going to go around saying that just because obviously I’m a Cows fan obviously I’m biased and I’m gonna be hyped about any new prospect but I really think that Tyrese Proctor is a solid player i watched a lot of Duke basketball in 2024 he’s an absolute sniper so I think the Cavs got something good and I’m going to talk about it and then they of course also got Nyang with that second to last pick which I thought was funny who needs a G Wagon when you can have an S Wagon obviously the guy they picked is not going to be on the team he’s probably going to be stashed overseas but still you never know i mean Nicole Joic got picked during a Taco Bell commercial or something so you can’t sleep on the second round picks every now and then there is a stud that comes out of it but in this video I want to talk about the good and the bad let’s start with the good with the 49th pick the Cavaliers of course selected Tyrese Proctor out of Duke and all things considered I actually liked it i thought it made a ton of sense especially when you start piecing together the writing on the wall which is that Sam Merrill or Ty Jerome was going to be the odd man out and ESPN guys were hyping him up as the pick happened talking about how many teams that had late round position wanted to be in the calav spot to get this guy and with this pick it’s looking more and more like Sam Merrell is going to be the one on his way out obviously Merillo is a guy that has had his fun moments but I think his time has come and gone proctor’s a little bigger he has a longer wingspan he’s more switchable even though Sam Mero throughout last year really did start to improve on the defensive end I got to give credit where credit is due especially in the playoffs i thought he was actually one of the Cavs best defenders but you can see how the front office saw that as a natural fit moving forward the Proctor pick wasn’t some big swing for the fences type of move but it was solid and for a second rounder that’s all you can really ask for in this video I want to break down Tyrese’s Proctor and what the Cavaliers are getting out of the 49th pick in the draft and what it means for the team moving forward now that the East is wide wide open in 2026 but before I do begin I would really appreciate it if you would drop a like and subscribe

I sat down for the second round of the draft with hope… and left with more questions than answers. Tyrese Proctor? Loved it. Smart, polished, fits the Cavs perfectly. But pick 58? A stash big while Vlad Goldin was right there? Man, that one stings. Cleveland still has a frontcourt problem—and they didn’t fix it.
