Jefferson is expected to be immediately waived by the Hawks, allowing him to become a free agent upon clearing waivers.
The trade will save the Cavs about $12 million in luxury taxes.
Both Jefferson and Felder have been mentioned as two players that the Cavs were likely to either cut or trade in order to trim down the roster.
