The Cleveland Cavaliers could trade Jarrett Allen and they are eyeing two future Hall of Famers.
According to Sam Amick of The Athletic, the Cleveland Cavaliers could trade Jarrett Allen.
The Cavaliers are looking to trade Allen "as a way of unlocking much bigger possibilities."
What big plans is Cleveland eyeing? Brian Windhorst of ESPN says the Wine and Gold are looking at Dallas Mavericks star Anthony Davis and Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo.
The Cavaliers could also trade Darius Garland to the Los Angeles Clippers for James Harden.
The Cavaliers haven't been past the second round of the playoffs with Garland, Allen, Donovan Mitchell and Evan Mobley leading the way. It appears Cleveland's brass, led by owner Dan Gilbert and president of basketball operations Koby Altman, is looking to shake things up.
Cleveland had the best record in the East last season. However, the Indiana Pacers beat the Cavaliers in the second round of the playoffs in five games.
The 2026 NBA trade deadline is February 5 at 3 p.m. ET. It will be fascinating to see if the Cavaliers trade Garland for Harden and if Davis or Antetokounmpo lands in Cleveland next to Mitchell and Mobley.
Allen is averaging 14.0 points, 8.0 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game this season. He's been with the Cavaliers since the 2020-21 season.
Davis is averaging 20.4 points, 11.1 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game this season. He was traded by the Los Angeles Lakers to the Mavericks last season in the blockbuster Luka Doncic trade.
Finally, Antetokounmpo is averaging 28.0 points, 10.0 rebounds and 5.6 assists per game this season. He's ready to leave the Bucks, who have lost in the first round of the playoffs for three consecutive years.
