Nope, they sure don't.I think Cavs see Clarkson as a core piece and the offer for him would have to be significant.

I hope they don't pay him, but I definitely don't agree they don't value him going forwardNope, they sure don't.

They took him via trade because they valued Nance very much, and he added scoring pop off the bench for a title contender. He's definitely not in their long term plans.I hope they don't pay him, but I definitely don't agree they don't value him going forward

That may be how they should see him (like Hill) as deadline trade bate for the reasons you say, but I don't agree that this org doesn't value his scoring ability going forward either as he proved to be much better in a Cavs uniform than he was in LA.I think they value him like they valued Hood, Burks, and Hill. They wouldn't see him as a pure expiring because whoever gets him gets a player that can score and possibly help a team. Some team over the cap could see Clarkson as their bench scorer for this season then give them the flexibility with his expiring contract to either keep him or go after a better fit next summer.
Today, the Cavs worked out a familiar face, at least for Coach Beilein:

I think he may be the target at 26. It would be a reach though so I'm hoping we can buy a 2nd and get him then. I think Beilein will want a familiar face as we transition to his system. I could also see Jordan Poole signing a 2 Way contract with us if he goes Undrafted or at the very least play with us in Summer League.
Very possible. I’d also keep a close eye on Grant Williams, Chuma Okeke, & Mfiondu Kabengele.
I think Okeke is a big chance for us, considering I'm expecting us to be bringing in 3 rookies, having one sit for a while who still has some serious upside wouldn't be a bad thing for integrating them into the lineups.Very possible.

THT is a late first round early second round prospect with huge upside.
I have Williams ranked ahead of Okeke too and somewhere in my top 15 prospects. I just have a sense if we are still picking at 26 that Okeke is a good chance to be our guy.Williams is better than Okeke, younger than Okeke, and doesn't have a torn ACL. I like both of them...but Williams is the clear better prospect as far as I'm concerned, in terms of ceiling and floor.
