The Cavaliers first summer again without LeBron James is still filled with plenty of question marks about how this roster is going to look come training camp, but the team is certainly being linked to all kinds of players that could help the franchise.
The latest in that regard is unrestricted free agent shooting guard Treveon Graham, who was watched heavily by a number of Cavs front office folks at a workout according to NBA Insider David Aldridge.
Cavaliers had a group in this morning to see workout of UFA @TreBall21, per league sources. Cleveland has strong interest; Minnesota in as well. Hornets did not give Graham a QO in June, making him unrestricted. Good 3 and D wing potential.

Coach Ty Lue was one of the Cavs that was on hand to watch Graham, along with General manager Koby Altman and assistant general manager Mike Gansey.
So what can Graham bring the Cavs should they take a shot and ink him? He’s a 6-foot-5, 220-pound wing who went undrafted in 2015 out of Virginia Commonwealth, spending time with the Charlotte Hornets and the G-League’s Idaho Stampede.
At the end of June the Hornets announced that they would decline a qualifying offer to Graham, which is why he’s now a free agent.
In 63 games in Charlotte last season he put up 4.3 points per game, and 1.9 boards per game. He shot 43.4 percent from the field and 41 percent from three-point rage in putting up 16.7 minutes per game.
The Cavs have the roster space to ink him if they want, and Minnesota is another team that reportedly is interested in Graham as well.
