Eight games into his #Cavs tenure, I think it’s easy to see that De’Andre Hunter is both a floor and ceiling raiser for this team.

Ty Jerome just received a tech from Natalie Sago. No one on the Cleveland bench seems happy with the officiating crew so far this afternoon. – 4:09 PM

Scoot Henderson didn’t get the memo that you can’t go under screens when defending Ty Jerome.
Portland wants a timeout after his made 3 cuts the lead to 18-16 with 4:04 left in the first. – 3:58 PM

Ty Jerome and Dean Wade are the first two off the bench for the #Cavs at the first timeout. – 3:53 PM
Chris Fedor @ChrisFedor
No awards are handed out based on just one game, but it certainly feels, at least, notable that the perceived Sixth Man of the Year frontrunner was unplayable and a -36 while #Cavs Ty Jerome was instrumental in the comeback and a game-high +34. – 11:31 PM
Danny Cunningham @RealDCunningham
Ty Jerome was a game-high plus-34 tonight in 21 minutes for the #Cavs.
Boston’s Payton Pritchard was a game-low minus-36 in 25 minutes for the Celtics. – 11:04 PM
Chris Fedor @ChrisFedor
First half bench scoring:
#Cavs — 28
#Celtics — 3
Ty Jerome, De’Andre Hunter, Dean Wade, Isaac Okoro and Sam Merrill kept this a game. – 8:53 PM

Ty Jerome is really heated with Ben Taylor after a no call on one end and then Jayson Tatum’s and-1 on the other. – 8:09 PM

Ty Jerome time here in Boston. – 8:07 PM

#Cavs are coming out of the timeout with Ty Jerome, De’Andre Hunter, Max Strus, Darius Garland and Jarrett Allen. – 7:56 PM

“They’re not getting Ty Jerome for $2.5 million, and they’re probably not getting Sam Merrill for $2 million. Ty is more in the range of the non-taxpayer midlevel exception, maybe the full midlevel exception. I think the Cavs would be comfortable between $12 to $14 million annually, maybe $10 to $13 million. Something like that. It’s got to be a competitive offer. Some of this is going to be dictated by the market, but I think right around the midlevel exception is his right valuation.” -via YouTube / February 27, 2025
