The Cleveland Cavaliers have announced a 21-player roster for their upcoming training camp, which includes established players Donovan Mitchell, James Harden, Evan Mobley, and Jarrett Allen, as well as offseason additions Peyton Watson and Mario Hezonja. As the team prepares for its camp in Spain, head coach Kenny Atkinson has indicated that the starting lineup ~~has~~ is not yet ~~been~~ finalized. Atkinson noted that approximately 13 players are currently being considered for rotational minutes, ~~with discussions involving players such as~~ creating competition for 10 available spots. Among those being evaluated for the rotation are Watson, who has shown defensive strength and three-point shooting capabilities, as well as Mario Hezonja, Tyrese Proctor, Nae’Qwan Tomlin, and Jaylon Tyson. Discussions regarding the team’s lineup structure have included potential shifts in the frontcourt involving Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen. Additionally, analysts are weighing the role of James Harden; while a starting lineup featuring Harden alongside Mitchell, Watson, Mobley, and Allen is a possibility, there is speculation that moving the 37-year-old playmaker to a bench role could allow him to serve as an offensive engine for the second unit and better manage minutes for the team’s ball-dominant players.
