DEAN WADE (CLE)

UNDERDOG

NBA ROLE: (UTILITY) SCORING FORWARD

  

DEAN Wade: an undrafted forward outta Kansas State who parlayed his 2Way contract w/ the Cavs into a long-term spot; no slouch offensively: doesn’t shy away from midrange area - Wade’s able to turn down triples & rise for Js after 1-2 dribbles; plays like a big - relies on turnarounds (after spinning), loves to pump fake in the paint - must toe line between patience & hesitation; needs to add more counters to consistently get by his man; underrated defender - possesses requisite size & decent quickness to check 4s; seems to always provide valuable minutes - Wade stretches the floor & gives a strong effort when his number is called
