IN intends to waive them once the transaction is final. The Cavaliers will send guard Alec Burks to the Kings, as well as guards Nik Stauskas and Wade Baldwin, who were acquired on Sunday from the Portland Trail Blazers, to the Rockets.

The Cleveland Cavaliers are making a three-way trade with the Houston Rockets and the Sacramento Kings, according to National Basketball Association insider Adrian Wojnarowski. The Cavs receive Brandon Knight, Marquese Chriss and a protected first-round pick from Houston in the trade, according to terms reported by Shams Charania and Adrian Wojnarowski.

They 31-22 Rockets are trying to move into the top four in the West over the second half of the season.

Some may wonder why Cleveland agreed to take on Knight's contract, but they're adding picks in hopes of building for the future. It remains unclear how they figure into the Rockets' plans. Shumpert ($11 million) is an expiring contract, as are the salaries of Staukas ($1.6M) and Baldwin ($1.5M).

The Shumpert trade will save the #Rockets about $7.7M this season (most of that in luxury tax savings) and potentially a TON of money in 2019-20.

James Harden echoed Paul's excitement over the addition of Shumpert and praised the Rockets for being active before the trade deadline.

Rockets coach Mike D'Antoni drafted Shumpert with the 17th pick in 2011 when he was coach of the New York Knicks.
