CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The Cavaliers entered the 2016 NBA Draft without a selection, but purchased a second-round pick from the Atlanta Hawks, acquiring the draft rights to Oakland University point guard Kay Felder at No. 54 overall.

"We are excited to welcome Kay Felder to the Cavs' family," General Manager David Griffin said. "Kay is a dynamic playmaker, and most importantly, the type of person and competitor that we want to add to our locker room."

Felder, 5-foot-9, led the nation in assists, dishing out 9.3 per game, and was fourth in scoring, averaging 24.4 points. He was the only player in the country to rank in the Top 5 in both categories this past season.

The 21-year-old lefty was named Horizon League Player of the Year in 2016 and also made the All-Horizon League's First Team the last two seasons.

He played three years at Oakland, finishing as the conference's all-time leader in assists with 788. The Detroit native set a league record for most Player of the Week honors in a single season with seven and posted the only triple-doubles in school history with two this past season.

The shortest player at this year's NBA Draft Combine, Felder recorded the second-highest max vertical jump, leaping 44 inches.

"I've never tested it, because I'm a great leaper," Felder said at the time. "That's one thing I do."

Brandon Weems, a Cavs scout and friend of LeBron James, was an assistant coach at Oakland for two seasons -- working closely with Felder -- before joining the reigning NBA champs in 2015.

The Cavs have three point guards on the roster. Reserve Mo Williams told cleveland.com he was going to pick up his option for next season. Matthew Dellavedova is a restricted free agent who lost minutes in The NBA Finals after being a key piece of Tyronn Lue's bench during the regular season.

According to reports, the Cavs paid $2.4 million for the pick.
