The Cleveland Cavaliers have been playing excellent team basketball in the past couple of months. They’ve been blowing out opponents or executing down the stretch in close games to get those victories. With the playoffs here, the Cavs could be in line to play some close games.

We have the top five players who should take the last shot based on their clutch shooting percentages in the final five minutes of games within five points during the regular season.

6. Iman Shumpert
