Plus the 23rd pick? Cleveland should jump into it.
I'd do this

It still works for Utah as the assets they give up are not very likely to stay long term and Parker would be much more so

Wiggins should go first IMO, he's the best prospect in the draft.
Orlando is offering #4, #12 and Afflalo for #1.
Wow, that's a lot.
Favors and burks are scrubs tbh
Can Afflalo play the 3? If not I'd just take Wiggins at #1 if I'm Leaveland.
I like Afflalo but he is overpaid. I would rather have those picks plus the young forward they have (cannot remeber his name) or Oladipo but my guess is Oladipo is off limits. If I were Cavs I would thrown in Waiters (plus#1) tell em they can keep Afflalo but give me Oladipo ...but that is just me. Though a bit undersized I think Oladipo/Irving is a nice backcourt. Draft embid at #4 and someone good that falls at #12.
thats insane.
man ive been watching highlights and i think im more impressed with Parker over Wiggins
The Cleveland Cavaliers are torn on who to select with the top overall pick, deciding between Jabari Parker and Andrew Wiggins.
The front office, including David Griffin, would prefer to select Parker. Gilbert would like the Cavaliers to take Wiggins following his excellent workout for the team last week.
It is unclear if Gilbert is prepared to overrule his front office on the pick.
Gilbert allowed his previous front office and Mike Brown to take Anthony Bennett.
"After what happened last year, he may choose to make the call himself," one source close to the situation told ESPN.com.
The Cavaliers could also trade down to improve their roster immediately in an attempt to improve their chances of signing LeBron James.
sign wiggins, then trade that empty stats guy irving
Parker's the safer bet, Wiggins more upside. Personally I'd take Parker. I likes him better as a player, which is why I hope he doesn't get stuck in Cleveland.
Wiggins can grow into a star if he goes to the right team. The Cavs aren't that team. They are just a terrible basketball organization. They cannot develop players well, I honestly think Kyrie would have turned out differently had he gone to another team. With that said, Cleveland is better off trading the pick.
Cleveland pushed on deal centered on No. 1 pick for Kevin Love, but his refusal to re-sign w/ Cavs has killed talks, sources tell Yahoo.
for a guy with incredible hops, wiggins gets almost no lift on his jumpers... he might as well do the marc gasol, just tip toes
Cleveland

So many teams outside or late first-round targeting players in 20's, trying to move up on board today. Should be a wild draft day and night.
