    The NBA Draft is right around the corner and teams are looking at the incoming class to see who can help replace aging stars and who can fill holes that are either present or soon to be present. One of those teams are the Cleveland Cavaliers and with the uncertainty surrounding Luol Deng, there’s a growing chance he’ll be replaced using the draft.

    According to Terry Pluto of The Plain Dealer, the Cavaliers will be looking at small forwards in the draft this June to replace Luol Deng.

    This makes sense as there are a slew of small forwards in the draft that the Cavaliers can pick up no matter where they pick. Should they win the lottery, or at least pick in the top 3, they can land either Jabari Parker or Andrew Wiggins which is beyond ideal. But if they stay put at No. 10 overall then they can still grab someone like Rodney Hood or Doug McDermott to fill Deng’s shoes.
