A team in the Eastern Conference has expressed interest in Charlotte Hornets’ restricted free agent P.J. Washington. That team? The Cleveland Cavaliers. According to Chris Fedor of Cleveland.com, the Cavs have shown interest in acquiring Washington from the Hornets.
“Sources say even though Cleveland has expressed interest in acquiring Washington, and there’s a belief it is lurking, there haven’t been any extensive, detailed or meaningful trade discussions with Charlotte at this point.”
Even though talks of note have not taken place between the two sides, this does provide a potential link between Washington and somewhere besides Charlotte.
