NBA Trades: 5 potential trade targets for the Cavaliers – Luke Kennard

Lastly, LA Clippers guard Luke Kennard could become a trade target for the Cleveland Cavaliers. Kennard is also an exceptional shooter with plenty of value on the offensive end.

The Clippers are in an interesting position as they’re currently in one of the Western Conference play-in spots and superstars Paul George and Kawhi Leonard could be sidelined for the remainder of the 2021-22 season. There’s some belief around the league that they could become sellers in favor of lessening the tax bill leading up to the deadline.

If that’s the case, then some of their role players like Kennard could be available for a rather cheap price. Cleveland wouldn’t mind an offensive boost at a low price since their defense is already elite and will certainly stay that way as long as their promising frontcourt stays healthy.

With Kennard averaging 12.1 points per game while shooting 43.9 percent on three’s this season, he’d be an impactful role player for this Cleveland team that would benefit from his scoring abilities.

Other trade targets for the Cleveland Cavaliers could include Caris LeVert, Marcus Smart, Dennis Schroder, Gary Harris, Terrence Ross, Josh Richardson, and Justin Holiday.
