The Cleveland Cavaliers have two top-four picks and plenty of options in the National Basketball Association draft.

They are expected to take point guard Kyrie Irving of Duke with the No. 1 pick Thursday night (7 p.m., TSN2) and could take a big man at No. 4.

Or, they could pass on Irving and choose Arizona forward Derrick Williams, who says he is the most NBA-ready player available.

The draft isn't considered very strong and there are plenty of question marks, including whether scoring leader Jimmer Fredette of BYU can become a top NBA player.
