Since the 2017-2018 NBA season started a few weeks ago, the Cleveland Cavaliers haven’t exactly been rolling. An indication of this slow start is the fact that the starting lineup has changed multiple times so early down the road.

So in order to meet the championship criteria set by the fans and, of course, the quality of the roster, it is rumored that the front office of the Cleveland Cavaliers is looking to shake things up once again. But who could be on the move this time?

The Cavaliers should be looking to trade their most valuable trade piece, that, of course, being the 2018 Nets first round pick. Even though the Nets started their season by racking up some wins, their biggest one being against the Cleveland Cavaliers, nobody actually believes they stand a chance at making the playoffs.

This increases the value of the pick that is most likely going to be a top 5 pick in one of the most talented draft classes ever, containing Michael Porter Jr. and Luka Doncic. But the question is, what trades could the Cavaliers make to strengthen their current roster using this valuable pick to lure other rebuilding franchises?

To be honest, the roster is pretty much set. You have All-Star caliber players at 3 positions and a great supporting cast. Additionally, the acquisitions of Jae Crowder, Dwyane Wade, Derrick Rose, and Jeff Green can help the key players cut down on their minutes and be even more ready when it’s playoff time.
