Cleveland Cavaliers: 3 players with the most to prove this season

2. Collin Sexton

Appearing in all 82 games and breaking multiple franchise rookie records, Collin Sexton must look to take another step in his development this season.

Sexton had a bumpy start to his career, but hit his stride late in the season. During a 13-game stretch in March, Young Bull put up an average of 24.0 points per game on 46.8 percent shooting from the 3-point line and 52.4 percent shooting overall.

This burst showed that Sexton could one day be a solid scorer at the NBA level. The only question now surrounding him is how quickly can he improve as a playmaker and a defender?

Last year, Sexton ranked as one of the worst defenders in the entire league. His size and inexperience made him an easy target for opponents who constantly forced Sexton into screen-and-roll actions.

In addition to his poor defense, Sexton was towards the bottom of the pack in assists per game. Averaging just 3.0 assists in his rookie campaign, Collin needs to find a way to create more for his teammates.

These two questions will linger over Sexton for the longevity of his career. Hopefully, he makes a solid jump this season to silence any of his doubters.
