"One possible target for the Cavs is Naji Marshall, according to Fedor, who says Cleveland is among the teams to express interest in the Mavericks forward. While a deal centered around Ball and Marshall may intrigue the Cavs, Dallas is reportedly seeking at least a first-round pick for the veteran wing, and it’s unclear if Cleveland wants to give up its lone movable first-rounder (either 2031 or 2032) at this time, given the club’s up-and-down performance this season."

I'm all for getting value out of Naji.  I'm not sure getting a 1st rounder 4 or 5 years down the road helps us with building a team around Flagg. Hell, this thing could hit rock bottom and Cooper could jump ship by then. 

I'm secretly hoping we can convince one of these bubble playoff teams to trade their 26 1st for Naji. Then that team misses the playoffs and gives us another lottery pick.
