Ceiling: 3-Point Contest

Reaching All-Star Weekend in any way seems like a victory for Dylan Windler. With his pure stroke from beyond the arc, Windler could easily find himself participating in the 3-Point Contest.

Last year with Belmont, Windler hit a college career-high 3.0 3-pointers a game. Shooting an efficient 42.9 percent from deep, he proved to be one of the best shooters available in the draft. He wasted no time showing off his range in the NBA Summer League, knocking down some impressive looks.

Ranking 20th in total 3-pointers made last season, the Cavaliers are desperate to add some deep shooting to their roster and will give Windler a sizeable role as fast as possible.

Plugging Windler in at small forward could spread the floor and lead to a more free-flowing offense. With the potential for Kevin Love to dominate inside the paint, Windler might find himself open on the wing a lot.

If Windler manages to capitalize on his looks, his 3-point prowess could land him in All-Star weekend.
