Analysis:

The move completes the Cavaliers' recent mini-overhaul after the team acquired J.R. Smith and Iman Shumpert from the Knicks on Monday and sent Dion Waiters to Oklahoma City. Mozgov figures to step in and immediately fill a major void as a rim protector and rebounder for a team in desperate need of a physical big man after losing Anderson Varejao (ankle) for the season. Boasting averages of 8.5 points and 7.8 rebounds in 25.6 minutes per game this season, Mozgov could see his minutes load increase slightly as he splits time with Tristan Thompson. Denver, meanwhile, returns two first-round picks belonging to Memphis and Oklahoma City, respectively. The Memphis pick is protected 1-5 and 15-30 in 2015 and 2016, 1-5 in 2017 and 2018 and unprotected in 2019. The Oklahoma City pick is only protected 1-18 in 2015 and 1-15 in 2016 and 2017. If the pick has not been conveyed by 2017, Denver will receive Oklahoma City's second-round picks in 2018 and 2019.
