Backup point guard Mo Williams will be included in a deal sending former All-Star shooting guard Kyle Korver to the Cleveland Cavaliers, sources told Jason Lloyd of the Akron Beacon Journal.

Williams' inclusion in the trade has yet to be determined, a source told ESPN's Dave McMenamin.

The reported deal would also send Mike Dunleavy and a 2019 protected first-round pick to the Atlanta Hawks.

In order to make room for both players, Atlanta has waived seldom-used forward Ryan Kelly, league sources tell ESPN's Marc Stein.

Williams has yet to play in an NBA game this season after undergoing knee surgery in October. The 34-year-old averaged 8.2 points, 2.4 assists, and 1.6 rebounds per game for the Cavaliers last season.

With Korver gone, the Hawks are reportedly listening to offers for three-time All-Star Paul Millsap.
