Cavs shopping Haywood and their 24th pick aiming to add a PG

The Cleveland Cavaliers are looking for a player to back up or play alongside Kyrie Irving and they are shooping Brendan Haywood and thier 24th overall pick in the next NBA Draft.

Per ESPN, Haywood's $10.5 million contract is not guaranteed for next season if he's waived by Aug. 2. This could be attractive to a team looking to either offload salary now or use it as part of another deal that could be executed during free agency in July.

Any trade involving the Cavs' first-round pick could not be executed until after the draft. They are precluded from trading their pick before making the selection because they already traded their 2016 first-round pick in the deal to acquireKevin Love last summer. That pick now belongs to Philadelphia.
