Cavaliers Target Watson in Sign-and-Trade | Cleveland Cavaliers News

Cleveland is circling Peyton Watson, a two-way small forward who could upgrade their defense and fit perfectly with Mitchell and Mobley. Denver, deep in luxury tax trouble, may trade him via sign-and-trade — with Cleveland, Milwaukee, or the Clippers in the mix. A potential deal swaps Max Strus for Watson, giving Cleveland shooting and playoff savvy while easing their payroll, and Denver gets a 2030 first-round pick. If no deal happens, Denver might offer Watson a one-year $6.5M qualifying offer. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
