Cavs Rumors: Nik Stauskas, Cleveland Agree to Contract After NBA Trade Deadline

Nik Stauskas is returning to the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Chris Fedor of Cleveland.com reported Stauskas has signed a deal for the remainder of the season in Cleveland. The Cavs initially acquired Stauskas and Wade Baldwin Feb. 4 from the Portland Trail Blazers for Rodney Hood. Cleveland then shipped them off to Houston in a three-way deal, and the Rockets moved Stauskas and Baldwin one more time to the Indiana Pacers at the deadline.

The Pacers waived both players immediately after the trade was completed. Stauskas was able to sign in Cleveland because of the Rockets-Pacers trade.
