Timofey Mozgov- Cleveland Cavaliers #20- Stats-
10.6 PPG, 6.9 REB, 1.2 BLK.
Has 1 facial expression.
Timofey Mozgov came in clutch. Not only in the games but to save the Cavs' season. The Cavs were struggling, having gotten back LeBron James, teaming him up with Kevin Love, and Kyrie Irving being the glue that held the 3 together. How could a team of 3 All-Stars be struggling against teams like the Hornets? They needed more grit, more fighting spirit, and more balls in general. So in a steal trade, the Cavs acquired Timofey Mozgov, a hard fighting center, who could score well. Cavs fans did not know it at the time Mozgov was acquired that he would save the season, but they knew it when they got to the finals, Mozgov being the piece they needed to get to the Finals and try to win a title. They didn't win the Title but they sure got an average player to evolve into a great one throughout the course of the season. Mozgov came in big because of his ability to score as a big man, notching 10 points per game, 8 more than Roy Hibbert got the whole season, and coming in as the hard knocks guy to block shots and dive for any ball that goes anywhere. He truly came in for the clutch, a great big man to have and a player they can count on.
