Cavaliers Prepare Tyrese Proctor, Craig Porter Jr., Jaylon Tyson for Vegas Summer League

The Cleveland Cavaliers are preparing for the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas with a focus on developing their young guards, including second-round draft pick Tyrese Proctor, Craig Porter Jr., and Jaylon Tyson. Proctor, known for his shooting ability from Duke, signed a multi-year contract and is expected to showcase his scoring and defensive skills, receiving mentorship from star guard Donovan Mitchell. The Cavaliers' roster competition for guard minutes is intense, especially with injuries to Darius Garland and the addition of Lonzo Ball, making shooting and work ethic critical factors for playing time. Jaylon Tyson has impressed with his exceptional work ethic, while Porter Jr. is being encouraged to improve his intensity and consistency. The team values positional versatility and situational matchups for rotation decisions and still aims to add a 14th player to complete the roster. Assistant coach Omar Cook highlighted the roster's size and length, emphasizing the team's strategic approach to player development during the Summer League.
