Cleveland Cavaliers already debunked the reports that they are trading Kevin Love. However, Cavs power forward remains a regular in the NBA trade rumor mills. Recent reports suggest that Kevin Love could be traded to Washington Wizards' Bradley Beal.
Previous reports suggest that Kevin Love is the odd man in Cleveland Cavaliers among the roster involving LeBron James, J.R. Smith, Kyrie Irving and Tristan Thompson. There are even rumors suggesting that LeBron James asked Cavs to trade Kevin Love for Philadelphia 76ers' center Nerlens Noel.
Kevin Love used to be a superstar in Minnesota Timberwolves. However, his performance declines since he joined Cleveland Cavaliers. Kevin Love averaged 26 points and 13 rebounds per game in his last season with Timberwolves. However, since he joined Cavs he only puts up 16 points and 10 rebounds. His attempt shots also reduce from 19 to less than 13 per games, Fansided reported.
Meanwhile, Bradley Beal is reportedly in feud with his Washington Wizards running mate John Wall. Many believe that the team should get rid of Bradley Beal so they can move on from the tiff involving the two players.
John Wall told CSN that he and Bradley Beal have the tendency to dislike each other on the court. However, they are able to put it on the side. After John Wall's admission many think that either he or Bradley Beal should move on from Wizards.
Well, there are reports that Cleveland Cavaliers and Washington Wizards are in trade talks involving five players. The trade involves Cavs and Wizards key players Kevin Love and Bradley Beal.

If the trade will be pushed, Cleveland Cavaliers will receive Bradley Beal, Markieff Morris and Marcin Gortat. Meanwhile, Washington Wizards will acquire Kevin Love and Mike Dunleavy in return.
Markieff Morris is a talented NBA player. He could replace Kevin Love in Cavs' starting lineup. Morris could also fill Love's scoring and rebounding. The only issue with Markieff Morris is his inconsistency. As for Kevin Love, the power forward reportedly lacks the defensive abilities, Inquisitr reported.
