Cleveland/GSW

Cleveland: Lavert and Niang

GSW: Wiggins

I’m not sure if or how many picks would go to Cleveland but curious on thoughts.

Cavs get a decent SF option they lack today

GSW - get a good scorer and save money long term

If Cleveland considers Tyson a legit LeVert replacement candidate, I would consider this. That said, there are no assurances as to which version of Wiggins they would, be getting.
Well at least we're not Detroit!

Wiggins was less of a disaster the second half of the year, but I feel like he's a lot of salary for the production and this would have major tax consequences going forward.

I think I'd rather do this than trade Allen for the privilege of paying Ingram $200M over 4 years. Obviously, the Cavs should talk to Atkinson first.

Jarret Allen isn’t winning you anything. Garland won’t show up in the playoffs. Mobley is a glorified dunk man. Mitchell has some experience but is a liability on defense. To me, the Cavs are a treadmill team.

As a Warriors fan, I'd have zero interest in this, even without bringing picks into it.

There's no point to dumping Wiggins just because. But a deal like this could be a part of a bigger deal where GS has to send out Wiggins and the other team wants less salary.
