The greatest player in Cleveland Cavaliers history is LeBron James. He brought the franchise their only championship in 2016, after coming from 3-1 down against the Golden State Warriors. When people think about Cavaliers' greats, they generally think of LeBron James.

With that being said, LeBron James isn't the only elite player who has played for the Cleveland Cavaliers. Mark Price is a player that made multiple All-Star appearances with the team and even led them to the Eastern Conference Finals. Recently, Mark Price was praised by LeBron James, who called the point guard underrated on Twitter.

MAN Mark Price was so cold!!!! BEYOND UNDERRATED!!!!!

Mark Price has recently responded to LeBron James' statement about him on Twitter, stating that it's a shame that the two couldn't play together while also appreciating James for his words.

Appreciate the shoutout @KingJames too bad we weren’t able play together…we would have killed it!

LeBron James and Mark Price would have been a very good fit with one another. LeBron James is a dominant player near the rim, and an elite playmaker as well. Mark Price, on the other hand, operated well from the perimeter and was a blistering shooter from beyond the arc. He would be able to space the floor well for LeBron James while handling some of the shot creation and playmaking when needed to.

There is no doubt that it's fun to think about what sort of duo the two would make up. It is quite likely that they would end up winning a championship together. While this sort of team-up is only possible in basketball simulation games such as NBA 2K, even the thought of LeBron James and Mark Price teaming up is a wondrous idea, as it would make for some very good basketball on the Cleveland Cavaliers.
