Cleveland Cavaliers vs Golden State Warriors preview

The Warriors have seen promising signs from pick No. 52, Alex Toohey. The 6-foot-8 forward recorded 14 and 15 points in his first two Summer League appearances. He also has a knack for crashing the boards, racking up 14 rebounds over that stretch.

If Toohey can polish his 3-point shooting, he could prove valuable for the Dubs. Drafted at No. 56, Will Richard, has also been solid, recording 10.6 points on 47% shooting through his first three games.

Meanwhile, the Cavaliers have received solid contributions from Tyrese Proctor, who was drafted 49th. He has made three appearances, averaging 11.7 points, 4.3 rebounds and 5.0 assists.
