Singleton vs Harris
Singleton's lock down defense was no match for the likes of Marcus Morris. Is Morris an elite NBA wing? I don't know but there's a lot of Singleton hype on here that may just be hype. I've come to put a bit of stock in PKM's informed opinion and this, along with Singleton's failure to look good against Morris, has helped me stop drinking the punch.The Cleveland Cavaliers held a draft workout on Monday that included Tobias Harris, Marcus Morris, Jordan Williams, Chris Singleton, Cory Joseph and Diante Garrett. Harris was matched up against Williams, Morris went up against Singleton, and Joseph matched up with Garrett. According to a source, Morris was the most impressive player in the workout. The source said that Morris really tore it up and Singleton didn't look good at all. The source also said that Garrett got the best of Joseph. The Harris-Williams matchup wasn't an ideal pairing, as Harris is more of a combo forward and Williams is a true post player.
The thing about Singleton is that he really isn't a one on one guy, which is probably who looks best in work out situations. He isn't going to be able to get his own shot. Also, while Morris might not be the best wing, he does have a diverse offensive game and is probably a tough cover from every area on the court.
Brewer used up my tolerance for wing players who can't shoot, so I'm not buying into the Singleton hype. Tobias Harris it is.
