Cavs’ most recent reported trade is solely about the first-round pick

ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported that the Cleveland Cavaliers reportedly agreed to a three-team trade with the Houston Rockets and Sacramento Kings. Cleveland sent Alec Burks to the Kings, and sent the recently-acquired (via the recently reported Rodney Hood trade to the Portland Trail Blazers, per Wojnarowski) Nik Stauskas and Wade Baldwin IV to the Rockets. In return, the Cavs received Brandon Knight, Marquese Chriss and a lottery-protected 2019 first-round pick from Houston. Clearly, this deal is not about the players Cleveland received, though.
