The Cleveland Cavaliers may look at multiple deals at the trade deadline this season and players like Kyle Korver, Tyreke Evans, Omer Asik, Jared Dudley or Markieff Morris could be potential targets.
The Cavaliers have multiple trade exceptions to use at the deadline this season and the team reportedly has been looking at adding wing depth for the back stretch of the season. According to Brian Windhorst at ESPN, the Cavaliers have shown interest in Kyle Korver, Tyreke Evans and Omer Asik. Windhorst reported earlier in the month that Jared Dudley also could be a target for the team at the trading deadline.
Windhorst reports that the Cavaliers showed interest in Dudley over the summer and "kicked around" the idea of making a deal with the Wizards. The Cavs would like to add some wing depth and the team could consider trading Timofey Mozgov to get a deal done. Mozgov has come up in trade talks since he is headed towards free agency and may not re-sign with the Cavaliers over the summer.
If Mozgov is moved, Asik could be a target for the team while Evans and Korver could be fits to help off the bench. ESPN is reporting that the Atlanta Hawks are considering selling off pieces at the deadline and Korver could be one player that gets moved. The Cavaliers remain first in the east this season and they likely will make at least one move to help the roster as they try and make another run to the NBA finals.
Windhorst reports that the Cavs have talked with the Kings about a deal for Mozgov, but there is not a trade that is close to happening at this point. Evans is dealing with an injury and that could keep him from being a trade target for the Cavs for now. Windhorst writes that so far the Kings have rejected the Cavaliers' offers for Mozgov, but that the two sides could continue talking as the deadline gets closer. Windhorst also reports that the team is unlikely to trade Anderson Varejao as things stand now.
