Cavaliers President: Mobley s growth is related to the team s future. I firmly believe that he is one of the best inside players in the league

On May 20, Cavaliers President Kobe Altman talked about the performance of Mobley, the best defensive player of the year.

Altman said: "This offseason is crucial to him. His growth will directly affect the future of our team, and we have communicated with him. Atkinson was hired because he was good at helping players improve during the offseason. This season, he has successfully improved Mobley's usage rate and tried to play multiple positions. In the playoffs, we hope he will shoot more per game, not just 13 times, which is also a big challenge for him. We firmly believe that he is one of the best big men in the league."

Mobley played 8 games during the playoffs this season, averaging 32.1 minutes per game, averaging 17.1 points, 8.1 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.0 blocks per game, shooting 58.6%, 45.2% from three-pointers and 84.0% from free throws.

Cavaliers lost 1-4 to the Pacers in the Eastern Conference semi-finals and unfortunately stopped in the second round.
