Meleek Thomas: “I really feel like it’s gon’ be a hard time guarding me”

2026 No. 34 pick Meleek Thomas believes that he’ll bring two-way attributes to the Cleveland Cavaliers (selected by the Sacramento Kings and immediately traded to the Cavs along with a 2032 second-round pick/Kings received the draft rights to No. 29 pick Alex Karaban).

(via Cleveland Cavaliers):

“What part of my game that I’mma bring to the NBA level? My defense, intensity. Being very intense on defense. Being one with five out there. Making sure that I got my teammates’ back just like they got mine on defense. And then my offense game, in my opinion, kinda speak for itself. I’mma shoot the skin off the ball. Yeah, and then I really feel like it’s gon’ be a hard time guarding me when it comes to defenders in the league.”
