The new look and retooled Cleveland Cavaliers could feature Dwyane Wade as the backup point guard and Kevin Love as the starting post man.
If the team’s early preseason practices are any legitimate indication, that’s the direction coach Tyronn Lue appears to be leaning in.
Since arriving in Cleveland just days after being bought out by his hometown Chicago Bulls, Cleveland.com reports Wade has been working out as the team’s backup PG.
“Me and Ty just talked about role,” Wade recently told reporters. “We didn’t talk about starting or nothing like that. We just talked about what my role can be and pretty much what I’ve always done. I’m not focusing on starting at the 2. I’m not focusing on anything. I’m just focused on coming in here, learning the offense, continuing to be one of the guys and figure that Ty, he will figure everything out.”
