20. Cleveland Cavaliers

Carlton Carrington, PG/SG, Pittsburgh | Age: 18.8

Teams view the 18-year-old Carrington as one of this draft's true upside swings, with positional size (measuring just under 6-foot-4 barefoot) and flashing the talent as a scorer, playmaker and defender to deliver a strong return outside the lottery. He's still raw enough that there's some downside here, and some scouts felt he missed an opportunity to help himself by playing in the combine scrimmages, but there's certainly optimism around his long-term potential as his body fills out. With the future of the Donovan Mitchell/Garland pairing in Cleveland uncertain, the Cavs could justify swinging on a younger guard at this spot. -- Woo
