As the Cleveland Cavaliers search for a trade partner before the NBA trade deadline, these five teams make the most sense.

The trade wins are blowing as the Cleveland Cavaliers search for pieces that will help the franchise return to the NBA Finals for the fourth consecutive season.

As is usually the case with the Cavaliers, the organization doesn’t have a whole heck-of-a-lot to trade.

Cleveland is old, and their salary cap is through the roof.

When it comes to actual players, Tristan Thompson would be considered valuable, as is Cedi Osman, who is garnering interest, according to Sam Amico of AmicoHoops.net.

The Cavs aren’t particularly interested in moving Osman, though, so that leaves them with “The Brooklyn Pick,” in addition to their own draft choice this summer, which is currently 24th overall.

The team will make some kind of trade, according to the New York Times, but who will GM Koby Atlman partner up with?

These five teams make the most sense as trade partners with the deadline looming on Feb. 8.
