Cavaliers select Saliou Niang

     With the second of their two second-round picks, the Cleveland Cavaliers selected Saliou Niang of Senegal, who played last season in the Italian League, where Niang averaged eight points and five rebounds last season.

The 6'7 Niang is reported to be very athletic, but is a poor shooter and will need work on the offensive end.

Niang is lanky with long arms and has a chance to eventually be a plus defender.

His limited offensive game makes him a project who will likely need a few seasons in Europe to develop, but he does have the physical skills to play someday in the league.
