Cavs weigh best player vs size at No. 8 in draft
Cleveland general manager Jim Paxson says the Cavs will take the best player available but seek size at No. 8 with big men scarce. DaSagana Diop seems the top big option, though he is injury-plagued and a year away. Other targets include Jason Richardson, Joe Johnson, Vladimir Radmanovic, Shane Battier, and Loren Woods or Troy Murphy if they slip to No. 8 or 20.
