The Cleveland Cavaliers hit the jackpot when Tyrese Proctor fell to the No. 49 pick in the NBA Draft, a selection initially deemed too low for his talent. The Australian guard showcased his scoring ability during the Las Vegas Summer League, dropping 35 points in a recent game, where he demonstrated versatility by making all nine free throws and hitting a few key shots from beyond the arc. With Craig Porter Jr. sidelined due to injury, Proctor has taken on a significant role, adapting seamlessly to the pressure.

His performance indicates that while he may start as a role player in the upcoming season, he has the potential to develop into a key asset for the Cavaliers. Learning from established stars like Donovan Mitchell and Darius Garland, Proctor could refine his skills and become a dynamic player in the league. His shooting prowess stands as his strongest asset, suggesting that there is even more to come as he gains experience.
