Neto was previously with the Washington Wizards, where he was a productive rotational guard, a role he’ll most likely find himself in with Cleveland. The Cavaliers like their scrappy veteran guards with Neto and Ricky Rubio, while Rajon Rondo was on the roster last season. He’s a 30-year-old with a high floor and low ceiling that should give some solid minutes to a Cavaliers team that showed they are building something meaningful after a strong season in a difficult Eastern Conference.
In 2021-22, Neto averaged 7.5 points, 3.1 assists, and 1.9 rebounds per game across 70 appearances.
