Wojnarowski: Cavaliers Want To Trade For Blazers F LaMarcus Aldridge

Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports reports that the Cleveland Cavaliers are interested in trading for Portland Trail Blazers All-Star forward LaMarcus Aldridge.

Privately, the Cleveland front office has pitched a fantasy of trading young players and picks to Portland for All-Star forward LaMarcus Aldridge, sources said. Only, that's never going to happen. Cleveland is far higher on its two top-five picks, Tristan Thompson and Dion Waiters, than the rest of the NBA.

Dave's year-end evaluation of Aldridge is here. I discussed Aldridge a bit here. Bill Simmons of Grantland.com sized up his trade value here.

Thanks to FPS Northwest for getting there first in the FanShots.
