Cleveland Cavaliers Trade Target Big Board: Ranking Potential Acquisition for the Offseason
The Cleveland Cavaliers will have all summer to try and improve their roster.
Even though it seems like President of Basketball Operations Koby Altman wants to keep the core of this team intact, the Cavs might have no other options than to make some trades.
In the NBA, you have to give something up to get something good back in a return package. Let’s take a look at a few potential acquisition targets for the Cavs to look into this offseason.
Giannis Antetokounmpo, Milwaukee Bucks
According to several reports immediately following Cleveland’s Eastern Conference Finals sweep at the hands of the New York Knicks, it feels like the Cavs didn’t have much of an appetite to chase Antetokounmpo.
But could that change after watching the Knicks dominance in the NBA Finals?
Even at 33, Antetokounmpo is still one of the best players in the NBA. It would likely cost the Cavaliers Evan Mobley, but it would signal that they’re going all in for another championship in 2027.
LeBron James, Los Angeles Lakers
If LeBron decides that Cleveland is the best place for a potential farewell tour, the Cavaliers should be interested in a reunion for the third time.
Even if it were to cost the Cavaliers some assets in a sign and trade with the Lakers, James would bring a championship mentality to a team that has underwhelmed in the postseason.
Donovan Mitchell and James Harden would complement LeBron very nicely. If the Cavs are able to retain their bigs, the lob threat potential would be endless. A combination of Mitchell and Harden with either Max Strus or Sam Merrill should provide James with ample shooting threats.
It almost makes too much sense. Of course, there’s a chance that James could return to the Cavs as a free agent, too.
Tre Murphy III, New Orleans Pelicans
The Pelicans have been rumored to have plenty of interest in Jarrett Allen this offseason. If the Cavs decide to trade away their center to pave the way for Mobley’s role to expand, Murphy would be a target that makes plenty of sense.
The Cavs are starved for a wing. At 6-foot-8, Altman would be hoping that Murphy could fit Mitchell and Harden better than De’Andre Hunter was able to.
Bobby Portis, Milwaukee Bucks
The Cavs and Bucks have had trade conversations in a package centered around Antetokounmpo, but what if Portis could also be dealt?
Altman should look to upgrade Cleveland’s big man depth this offseason. Portis plays solid defense and can space the floor. When Allen and Mobley needed a break, Thomas Bryant and Larry Nance Jr. just didn’t give the Cavaliers enough last season.
A backup makes plenty of sense this offseason.

The Cleveland Browns are focused on more than winning games this season; they want to win souls for Christ.
Several Browns players hosted an even called “Cleveland for Christ,” which saw multiple players get baptized, including the team’s Defensive Rookie of the Year, Carson Schwesinger.
How great is this?

According to Fox News Digital, the event featured “quarterback Shedeur Sanders, running back Raheim Sanders, cornerback Tyson Campbell, safety Daniel Thomas and of course, team chaplain Nobles C. Darby among others. It brought together some members of the local community and Browns players for a time of praise, worship and fellowship.”
Browns QB Depended on God for Game-Winning Touchdown: ‘Thank You, Jesus’
“It’s so important to share your testimony. I encourage my teammates, anybody around me, because I look at it like this: A lot of people are not going to church, so you might be the only Bible that somebody ever reads. It’s important how we carry ourselves on and off the field,” Browns safety Daniel Thomas told the crowd of people at the event, per Sports Spectrum.
When promoting the event, Thomas shared on social media that it would be a time of “service and baptism.”
“This is a special moment for my brothers and I, as we’ve prayed about finding a way to impact this amazing community through Christ. We can’t wait to come together and celebrate faith in such a powerful way,” the safety said.
Browns chaplain Nobles Darby also helped lead the event. He always challenges his players to “leverage their platform to point other people to Jesus Christ, and this [event] is gonna be an opportunity to do that,” he said in a promo video.
“This event is really rooted in Acts 2:38, where Peter says, ‘Each of you must repent of your sins and turn to God to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ, and then you’ll receive the gift of the Holy Spirit,’” he added.
Browns cornerback Tyson Campbell called the event “powerful.”
“The Word says, ‘When two or three are gathered in My name, I am among them.’ So, God’s gonna be present, and I’m excited to see what He has in store,” Campbell added.
We applaud these athletes for using their platform to not only impact their community but to also share the gospel with their teammates and fans.

2026 marks the 75th anniversary of Topps Baseball cards, and to help celebrate, rare buyback card redemptions are being inserted into packs of 2026 Topps Series 2 Baseball. This continues an event that started with Series 1, but this time the cards are different, but equally as iconic. Names such as Jackie Robinson and Mickey Mantle will have redemption buyback cards that can be pulled, along with key hobby chases such as Ken Griffey Jr. All of the cards will be graded, but the grade is not specified on the redemption.
Here is a look at some (but not all) of the iconic cards that can be pulled from the product.
Hall of Fame Vintage Cards Make Up A Portion of Included Buyback Cards
While every single card included is iconic in its own right, there are a few that stand out, starting with a few Hall of Famers.
Hank Aaron
The 1954 Topps Hank Aaron Rookie Card is included on the list. Aaron is best known for setting the all-time home run record with 715 HRs, which was later broken by Barry Bonds. Aaron’s rookie is condition-sensitive due to the card’s colors and size.
The card features a full profile of Aaron, and high-grade copies will sell for good money. While it is not known what grade the redemption will be, any collector would love to have this card in their collection.
Mickey Mantle
Who doesn’t want a Mickey Mantle card in their collection? Mantle’s 1956 card can be pulled from 2026 Topps Series 2. This release includes both an action shot of Mantle and a headshot. While it may not be the 1952 Mantle, any vintage Mickey Mantle card has traction in the hobby.
Roberto Clemente
Roberto Clemente’s Rookie Card is a grail card for many, and one lucky collector will be able to pull the coveted redemption for it. Clemente was a standout star for the Pittsburgh Pirates and is still well respected in the hobby today.
A PSA 5 of this card sold recently for $5,927, showing that hobbyist interest remains years after Clemente’s untimely passing.
Recent Baseball and Hobby Stars Are Also Featured On The Checklist
Ken Griffey Jr.
Ken Griffey Jr. is one of the biggest names in the hobby when it comes to collectability, and his rookie card appears in the 1989 Topps Traded set. Like the other cards featured here, it can be redeemed.
While this may not be the most expensive card throughout the whole checklist, it is a rookie card of a hobby phenomenon.
Derek Jeter
Derek Jeter finds his way into the buyback redemption checklist with his 1993 rookie card as well. Jeter’s rookie card is iconic because its background resembles a baseball field, with the words “1992 Draft Pick” written above him.
It is a hard card to miss out in the wild, and is a key part of Topps history.
Clayton Kershaw
One of the newer cards featured in the buyback redemption program comes from the 2008 Topps Update and Highlights set. The card is a Clayton Kershaw Rookie, which has risen in value since his retirement.
What might seem like a common card to many can sell in PSA 9 condition for between $175-$200.
Any collector would be thrilled to add any of these cards to their collection. With Topps including these as buyback redemptions in the 2026 Topps Series 2, collectors will have the chance to add these cards in graded form. While they might be tough pulls, they do represent Topps’ history well.
