“He showed up every single day to work,” Cavs coach J.B. Bickerstaff said of Lamar Stevens. “He plays with a grit and tenacity that everyone has to respect. He’s a team-first guy. He works his tail off. And he’s proven that he belongs in this league. Coming from a two-way position, earning the respect of his teammates, other players around the league, the coaching staff and front office. It’s a credit to him and the hard work that he’s put in.”
