Cavaliers, Knicks Weigh Final Roster Spots Amid Offseason Moves
The New York Knicks are targeting Ben Simmons and Landry Shamet to fill their final roster spot, with Simmons drawing notable league interest after averaging modest stats last season. Meanwhile, the Cleveland Cavaliers, considered top contenders in the Eastern Conference, have focused on maintaining their strong defensive frontcourt with Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen, while adding Larry Nance Jr. and Lonzo Ball to enhance their defense and playmaking. Despite these additions, the Cavs still face concerns over frontcourt depth, prompting interest in veteran center Thomas Bryant as a potential bench reinforcement. Cleveland is also deliberately keeping their final roster spot open to maintain salary cap flexibility and to allow for potential mid-season acquisitions. Analysts highlight the Cavs' need to improve defensively to maximize their championship chances and suggest that the team may consider salary-cutting moves to manage nearly $400 million in operating costs. Overall, both teams appear strategic in roster management, balancing immediate needs with financial and long-term considerations.
