Sullinger has already been contacted been the Miami Heat, though they have chosen not to offer him a contract. However, the Cavs may be interested in the 25-year-old who was the 21st player selected in the 2012 NBA Draft. The 6-foot-9 power forward has averaged 10.8 points and 7.5 rebounds over his five seasons, but he was traded by the Toronto Raptors on the last day of the trading deadline and subsequently waived by his new team, the Phoenix Suns.
