Cleveland Cavaliers: Dean Wade

September 14, 2024

Dean Wade has been proposed as part of a trade package to the Atlanta Hawks, along with Ty Jerome. His potential departure highlights the Cavaliers' strategy to make roster changes, even as they look to maintain depth. Wade's role with the team thus far has been consistent, but he may not have a guaranteed spot moving forward, especially with discussions of bringing back veteran talent like Larry Nance Jr.

Cleveland Cavaliers Reunite With Defensive Ace In Bold Trade Proposal

The Cleveland Cavaliers are keeping their current roster intact this offseason, but potential roster adjustments have been discussed.

A proposed trade suggests that the Cavaliers could send Dean Wade and Ty Jerome to the Atlanta Hawks for Larry Nance Jr. and a second-round draft pick. Nance, a familiar face for Cavs fans, previously played a key role in their 2018 NBA Finals run.

Despite limited recent production with the New Orleans Pelicans, Nance's defensive versatility and 3-point shooting ability could be beneficial for the Cavaliers as they seek greater depth.
