5 Trade Targets Who Can Help Solve Cleveland Cavaliers' Backup PG Problem

There aren't many holes on the 15-5 Cleveland Cavaliers,but finding a reliable backup to Kyrie Irving is certainly the biggest.After losing Matthew Dellavedova to free agency and learning of Mo Williams' retirement just minutes before the start of media day, the Cavs have used a patchwork of players to try and fill the gaps behind their All-Star floor general."We felt Mo Williams was coming back, he said he was coming back to play, and then all of a sudden he didn't, so it kind of put us in a bind," head coach Tyronn Lue said, via Joe Vardon of Cleveland.com.With natural shooting guards Iman Shumpert, Jordan McRae and DeAndre Liggins being asked to play out of position at timesand rookie Kay Felder probably not quite ready for big minutesthe trade market appears to be the Cavaliers' best bet."When we get a backup point guard, we can understand what our rotation's gonna be. We don't have to switch it on a night-to-night basis, so our team can get in a better flow," Lue said in Vardon's piece.Cleveland only has limited assets available to parlay, so guys like Ricky Rubio and Brandon Knight are out of the picture. The Cavs do own a $9.6 million trade exception, meaningthey wouldn't have to match up salaries. Young players like Shumpert (26 years old), Liggins (28), McRae (25) and Felder (21) could be dangled as well as future second-round draft picks in order to land a veteran guard.Begin Slideshow
