The Cavaliers learned the hard way in last year's playoff run that they didn't have enough wing shooting to support the non-spacing frontcourt combo of Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen. That's the reason why Max Strus and Georges Niang are now Northeast Ohioans.

If Cleveland doesn't alter this roster, though, its next postseason venture could reveal that it lacks the perimeter defensive talent to compete at the highest level. Strus is far from a lockdown defender, and the less that's said about Niang's defense, the better.

Despite Cleveland's summer shopping spree, this club could still be in need of a wing upgrade. Finney-Smith could provide that jolt. He is a defensive menace with the quickness to keep in front of guards and the strength to bang with bigger forwards.

Finney-Smith also has a track record of being a quality-plus-quantity option as a perimeter shooter, having averaged 1.9 triples with a 38.9 percent splash rate between the 2019-20 and 2021-22 seasons.
