Sample Book Insights:

#1 In 2013, the NBA Draft was filled with prospects that seemed safe enough choices. However, many scouts had doubts about the other talents in the draft.

#2 Miller was the agent for Anthony Bennett, who was selected first by the Cavaliers. Miller had refused to allow any team to meet with his client Noel, as he feared he might slip in the draft if teams were allowed to meet with both Bennett and Noel.

#3 The final year of Cleveland’s GM, Grant, was overseeing the Cavs’ pick. He needed to build a playoff contender, and end the Cavs’ postseason drought, ever since LeBron James migrated to South Beach during free agency in 2010.

#4 In 2013, the Cleveland Cavaliers had the No. 1 pick, and they drafted Kyrie Irving. However, their front office was unsure if they should draft another phenom who would later walk out in free agency like LeBron James did. They ultimately chose Anthony Bennett.
