With Donovan Mitchell signed long-term, Cavs look to make deeper run under new coach Kenny Atkinson

Cleveland Cavaliers Last season: 48-34, lost to Boston in Eastern Conference semifinals. Atkinson inherits a talented, deep squad with experience and in All-Star guard Donovan Mitchell, one of the league’s best two-way players. Strengths and weaknesses The good: Mitchell headlines Cleveland’s “Core 4” with guard Darius Garland, forward Evan Mobley and center Jarrett Allen, one of the NBA’s most underrated big men. The 7-footer’s raw potential is unquestioned and Atkinson, who was an assistant on France’s Olympic team led by Spurs star Victor Wembanyama, spent a chunk of his summer designing offensive sets that run through Mobley. Reserve guard Ty Jerome was the talk of summer camp after missing last season with an ankle injury and could provide some minutes off the bench.
