Cleveland Chapter Complete

Bittersweet goodbyes to the place I’ve grown to love and the people I’ve called family the past 3 years. How blessed I am to be inspired by my mentors, energized by my team, and loved by my friends here. It has been a dream working for a team of people I can be so proud of. So much love to my social team, the Cavs organization, and the boys on the court. I’ll be cheering y’all on every day from the mountains.

Let em know forever ❤️💛

See you soon Colorado!

🚨 WHY PEYTON WATSON MAKES SENSE FOR CLEVELAND 🚨

This isn’t about Max Strus being a bad player.

It’s about FIT.

The Cavs need more size, athleticism and defense on the wing — and Peyton Watson checks ALL THREE boxes.

📊 2025-26:
14.6 PPG • 4.9 RPG • 2.1 APG
1.1 BPG • 41.1% 3PT

At 6’8” and just 23 years old, Watson gives Cleveland something Strus simply can’t:

🔒 Length & versatility
⚡ Athleticism
🛡️ Defensive upside
📈 Youth & potential
🎯 Shooting ability

Yes, Watson would likely cost Cleveland more money than Strus.

But this isn’t about saving money.

It’s about getting BETTER.

Cleveland is reportedly looking to move Strus and his $16.7M expiring contract to create financial flexibility for a potential pursuit of Watson.

Now imagine:

James Harden
Donovan Mitchell
Peyton Watson
Evan Mobley
Jarrett Allen

👀🔥

That’s a MUCH bigger, more athletic and more defensive-minded Cavs lineup.

We are the Cleveland Sirens. We found her voice.

From script to post, this was about creating a mythical world and a creature that could only come from the depths of Lake Erie.

It took a huge team of co-collaborators and creators to bring this to life, including live action shots on location in Cleveland, virtual production, VFX, and AI Production.

Massive thanks to our incredibly trusting client, @clevelandwnba @cavs

Could not be happier to share our latest work at @supper.supper - introducing the Cleveland Sirens. Inspired by our greatest asset, Lake Erie, the Sirens are the newest franchise in the WNBA, tipping off in 2028.

An honor to help shape the future of women’s sports in the place that shaped me.

Another year another city edition for the @cavs.
2025/2026 Cavs City Edition design.

A new color of the ‘22/‘23 City jerseys, once again with the @clevemetroparks. Whether you think it references the sunsets over Lake Erie or the fall foliage in the Metroparks - you are right!

Undefeated this season in these jerseys. Swipe to the end for a surprise 💅🏼
