The Cleveland Cavaliers acquired Peyton Watson from the Denver Nuggets through a sign-and-trade, while also re-signing James Harden, which hard-caps them at the first apron.

Whitmore’s potential release would incur $1.8 million cap hits over three years. To fill the roster spot, Cleveland could sign Ismael Kamagate, whose draft rights they obtained in the deal.
