5. Taj Gibson
Taj Gibson has been on the trading block for about the last year now, as it seems the Chicago Bulls have been ready to move on from his type of play at the power forward/center position.
Gibson could be a nice get for the Cavaliers, as he would provide a little bit of versatility and step into the power forward position with Thompson on the floor at center. Or he could play center as a good rim protector in a small-ball lineup.
There have even been a few recent trade rumors regarding Gibson and the Cavaliers. The rumored deal would send Kevin Love to Chicago, while the Cavs would get Gibson, Nikola Mirotic and Tony Snell in return.
That deal is pretty solid on paper, as the Cavs would be able to fill a couple holes in its roster like the backup point guard position, and would get an interesting piece in Mirotic, who has shown an ability to either play the small forward position or stretch four.
While the trade is decent on paper, the Cavs would likely want to get back a little bit more should they be willing to part ways with an All-Star like Love.
Next: Jimmy Butler
