According to some sources, Anderson Varejao received $7 million offer from the Memphis Grizzlies. Anderson can sign an offer sheet July 11th and because he is a restricted free agent, the Cavaliers will be able to match that.
The Grizzlies have about $8.3 million to spend in free agency. “They are expected to throw some of it [...]
According to Chris Sheridan, the Cavaliers are looking to trade Larry Hughes.
Brian Windhorst also suggests that the Cavaliers are interested in trading him:
“This is true and this has been true since the trading deadline when Danny Ferry openly told the media that he had conversations about every player on his roster with the exception of [...]
According to Larry Phillips of Telegraph Forum, Ferry is going to make a big pitch to deal for a legitimate sidekick to James. Golden State’s Jason Richardson, Rashard Lewis in Seattle, Portland’s Zach Randolph and Shawn Marion of Phoenix have been mentioned.
Hopes for adding a piece to the Cavaliers roster aren’t totally dead.
A new player acquisition period runs through March 1st. Players at the end of their contracts often ask to be let out of their deals at this time of year. No players publicly have asked to be let out, but that sort of talk [...]

The Cleveland Cavaliers and Sacramento Kings were discussing a trade several weeks ago that would send point guard Mike Bibby to the Cavs, but sources indicate the talks are long dead.

The New York Post reported that the Cavaliers are interested in Jason Kidd.
“I have it on excellent authority the Cavaliers – desperate to relieve LeBron James of his playmaking-for-others-and-himself obligation, and transform him into an open court, post-up receiver – called the Nets to voice their fondness for Kidd.
“I don’t look for that to happen,” [...]
Larry Hughes sometimes publicly but more so privately been grumbling about the way he’s used, and he is upset because it isn’t the situation he thought he was signing up for when he left the Washington Wizards.
