The Cleveland Cavaliers Now Have The Best Starting Lineup In The NBA, Says Kendrick Perkins

There’s just a lot to be excited about the Cleveland Cavaliers next season. Boasting a solid core of Darius Garland, Caris LeVert, Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen, the Cavs have now added former Utah Jazz star Donovan Mitchell to supplement that collection of talent.

Mitchell impresses as one of the top shooting guards in the NBA. Last season, the 25-year old put up 25.9 points, 4.2 rebounds and 5.3 assists per game on 44.8% shooting from the field and helped the Jazz make another playoff appearance.

As this trade gives the Cavaliers a lot more firepower, former NBA big man and now-NBA analyst Kendrick Perkins took to Twitter to share his thoughts on the new-look Cavs team.

“On paper the Cavs have the best starting lineup in the NBA!!! They could potentially have 4 All-Stars next season. Carry the hell on…”
