The Cleveland Cavaliers are "definitely looking into" the possibility of trading up for the No. 1 pick in the 2021 NBA Draft, sources told Cleveland.com's Chris Fedor.
Cleveland is currently slated to pick third in this month's draft but could be intrigued enough to put a package together for the right to select consensus top prospect Cade Cunningham.
If the Cavs opt to keep their own pick, they'll still have the luxury of selecting from a prospect pool that will include at least two of USC big man Evan Mobley, G League Ignite standout Jalen Green, and Gonzaga guard Jalen Suggs.
The draft is scheduled for July 29.
