The Cleveland Cavaliers should get in on the Atlanta Hawks next trade in a three-team deal as the Hawks talk to suitors about Paul Millsap.

The Cleveland Cavaliers should try to get in on a three-team deal as the Atlanta Hawks look to trade Paul Millsap.

The Cleveland Cavaliers, down to their last three real trade assets, are armed with a $9.6 million trade exception, a 2018 first round pick and EuroLeague sensation Cedi Osman. That may be enough to net them a decent point guard, or center, if the team opts to sign one of the three-point guards returning to full health in free agency.

With that being said, the Cleveland Cavaliers trade with the Atlanta Hawks for Kyle Korver has yet to be finalized. Currently, the Hawks are looking for a third team to take the contract of Mike Dunleavy Jr. and if they can’t find one, they’ll keep him. Yet, in trading away Paul Millsap to another team, throwing in Dunleavy could be seen as a major haul for certain ball clubs.

As of right now, two of the teams rumored to have significant interest in Millsap are the Sacramento Kings and New Orleans Pelicans.
