Cleveland Cavaliers' Kevin Love and Sacramento Kings' Rudy Gay are regulars in the NBA trade rumor mills. According to reports, Cavs and Kings may swap their players this NBA season. However, since Love has a higher market value, Kings will be sending more players to Cleveland Cavaliers.
Cleveland Cavaliers are in the process of rebuilding their team. Yes, the team is not broken and need not fixing but they definitely need an upgrade to match the powerful roster of Golden State Warriors.
Many believe that Cavs and Warriors will meet for the third time in the NBA finals. However, Cleveland Cavaliers need to provide LeBron James the best running mates to assure their seat in the finals. On the other hand, GSW has a stronger hold in their next NBA championship with Kevin Durant joining Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green.
Now, Cavs is considering a number of Kings' player in exchange for their power forward Kevin Love. According to Inquisitr, Cavs and Kings are in a trade talk involving four players: Kevin Love, Rudy gay, Willie Cauley-Stein and Ben McLemore.
Cleveland Cavaliers have been denying the rumors that they are trading Kevin Love. In fact, the team stressed that they are keeping Love with them until his contract is over. Unfortunately, this does not change the NBA trade reports. Kevin Love remains a regular in the NBA trade rumor mills and has been linked to Sacramento Kings.
Per the new reports, Kevin Love will join Kings while Rudy Gay, Ben McLemore and Willie Cauley-Stein will join the contender, Cleveland Cavaliers. The publication notes that this trade is possible because it satisfies the NBA trade and salary cap rules.
If this trade will be pursued, the next thing that fans will be looking forward is to see how Rudy Gay, Ben McLemore and Willie Cauley-Stein adapt to LeBron James and Kyrie Irving's gameplay.
Rudy Gay is a skilled scorer but he plays the same position as LeBron James. Cavs might use the combination of the two players. However, it is more likely that Gay will be a backup in Cavs and will play limited minutes.
