Traded midway through his eighth season (1982/83) in the NBA, World B. Free remained a top scorer in the NBA when he was a Cleveland Cavalier.  That year, he finished 8^th in Points per Game finishing with a 23.9 PPG.  Free continued to produce over the next three years with scoring seasons of 22.3, 22.5 and 23.4 respectively and over his 275 Games as a Cav he averaged 23.0 Points per Game.

Austin Carr was one of the most exciting players that the Cleveland Cavaliers had in the 1970s and a lot of the success that they did have.  Carr was the first overall Draft Pick in 1971, and the four-year player from Notre Dame wasted no time showing off his shooting skills.  Named to the First Team All-Rookie squad, Carr averaged 21.2 Points per Game, and he would keep up the 20 PPG average over the next two seasons.  In the last of that three-season stretch, he would be named to the 1974 All-Star Game, the first and only time that Carr would make that game.  He never hit that yearly average but did have two more where he exceeded 16.  Overall, he would post a 16.2 PPG over nine seasons as a Cavalier.

Andre Miller is considered one of the best players never to play in an All-Star Game; a snub should have likely been rectified when he was a Cleveland Cavalier.  Playing his first three seasons of his career with the Cavs, Miller’s most efficient years occurred there.  He would have a PER of 20.2 and would average 14.5 Points in hi 245 Games there.  As a Point Guard, Miller was expected to be a good distributor, and in the 2001/02 campaign, he would lead the NBA in Assists and Assists per Game and had a career-high of 16.5 Points per Game.  Miller was shipped off to the Los Angeles Clippers the following season.

A sweet shooter from the University of Michigan, Michael “Campy” Russell was the 8^th Overall Pick in 1974, and the Small Forward would become a starter in his second season, and from there he would average at least 15 Points per Game, peaking at 21.9 in the 1978/79 campaign.  That year, Russell would be named to the All-Star Game.  He would be traded to the New York Knicks, but a brutal knee injury took him out for two seasons.  Russell was traded back to Cleveland, but he would only play three games before he was waived by the organization.  He would average 16.1 Points per Game with a PER of 17.8.
