Cavs: NBA execs think Darius Garland’s ready to blow up in 2021-22

Last season, I was pleased with how Darius Garland played for the Cleveland Cavaliers, for the most part.

After a fairly underwhelming rookie year because of a variety of factors, Garland had a bounce-back campaign in Year 2, and he looked to be himself health-wise, as compared to his rookie year. Then, a prior meniscus injury was reportedly in the back of his mind.

As a result, Garland appeared to be a completely different player, and he had a robust 17.4 points and 6.1 assists per outing, and knocked in 39.5 percent of his three-point attempts.
