Around the League Pre-Draft Rumors

Cavaliers

Several teams have contacted the Cavs about the Services of Anderson Varejao... Andy led the league in rebounds per game last year and would be a valuable asset to any team on the cusp of a championship... Even with a good draft and a decent Free Agent pickup, the Cavaliers probably wont be competing for a Championship next Season, so, they could look to move Andy for a younger, more athletic big man...

Teams interested:

Celtics
Thunder
Timberwolves

Kings

DeMarcus Cousins doesn't seem like he's happy in Sacramento... Its no secret that he's had off the court issues and some people around the league question his effort at times, but, I don't think you can argue the fact that he's one of the most talented big men in the NBA... Kings new head coach Ralph Bender plans on building his entire Offense around DeMarcus but, he's also been told by his GM that if the offer is right, the team will trade him if they feel like it benefits the team in the long run... Despite what the team says, I highly doubt they would trade a franchise big man with the talent of Cousins, you never know though, some team may blow them away with an offer that they simply can't refuse...

Teams interested:

Celtics
Thunder
Lakers
Cavaliers

Jazz

Derrick Favors

Great athleticism, Great size and a great offensive player in the post... Favors has many skills that teams look for in a big man... In Utah, he doesn't see much playing time behind Paul Milsap and Al Jefferson... Also, we're hearing that Center Enes Kanter is well liked by the Jazz staff, and that doesn't bode well for Favors going forward... He's voiced his displeasure with his role on the team and now, the ball is in the front offices court as they have to make a decision on his future with the team...

Interested teams

Cavaliers
Celtics
Heat
Timberwolves

The NBA Draft is only a few hours away from kicking off... Will any of these players be moved by then?
