Sources: Cavs considering trade for Joe Johnson of Nets

The Cleveland Cavaliers are considering trading for Brooklyn Nets star Joe Johnson with their Brendan Haywood contract chip, sources told ESPN.com.

Haywood has a $10.5 million nonguaranteed contract if waived before Aug. 1, an asset that has gained value over the last several days as other teams use up their cap space. The Cavs have been looking for perimeter help, and Johnson would certainly provide a major boost as an additional scoring and shooting option.

I'm not sure how the Cavs will fit Johnson into the lineup, but as it is, Johnson can play the 1-3 position. This will quickly plug some holes for the Cavs for the short term.
