NBA Trade Rumors: One priority for every team approaching the deadline

Cleveland Cavaliers

NBA Trade Deadline priority: Add some depth to the backcourt 

It’s a real shame that the injury bug has bit the Cleveland Cavaliers are hard as it has so far this season. You can’t help but wonder where this team would be if they still had Collin Sexton and Ricky Rubio still active.

Currently, the Cavs are sixth in the Eastern Conference with a 27-19 record. They have the 12th ranked offense in the league, third-ranked defense, and fourth-best net rating. Here’s one nugget that’s extremely interesting: they have the best net rating in the Eastern Conference this season.

The Cavs should do whatever they can to solidify their backcourt depth at the NBA Trade Deadline. I’m not sure what their ceiling is for this season, but there’s some real excitement surrounding the Cavs right now.
