Cavs trade J.J. to the Kings for Omri Casspi and future first round pick.

With a roster full at the power forward position and the recent arrival of Tristan Thompson, the necessity to move personnel became apparent.  Today J.J. was the first to go.  In a trade that sends Hickson to the Kings for Omri Casspi and, what could prove to be even more valuable, a future first round pick.  

Sacramento continues to work to find all the right pieces, which means their draft pick could have the Cavs selecting in the top five again.  Casspi has not seen a lot of playing time in Sacramento, but it gives Cleveland a player with some height that can score away from the basket.  This deal seems like another step in the right direction for a rebuilding Cavs squad.

  1. Brought to my attention by CRWtheGRK, via twitter, the draft pick is not all that great. It is restricted and will never drop into a top 10 selection.
