We have a jam-packed episode of The Dunker Spot coming your way! First, Nekias Duncan and Steve Jones are joined by Justin Rowan and Carter Rodriguez (The Chase Down Podcast) to discuss all things Cleveland Cavaliers! They talk through schematic shifts compared to last season, James Harden's addition, Donovan Mitchell's shift in responsibility, the (hidden) growth of Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen, lineup questions and much more.

From there, the guys react to the latest injury news. More specifically: how equipped are the Lakers to deal with Luka Doncic's hamstring injury? Nekias also provides a list of notable names to watch in terms of award eligibility (Wemby, Jokic, Kawhi, Ausar and more).

Finally, the guys discuss the Chicago Sky's pair of trades ahead of Friday's expansion draft. They talk through the logic of the moves, and debate if they were ultimately worth making.
