The Cleveland Cavaliers traded Dennis Schroder to the Charlotte Hornets for Tre Mann, saving salary cap space. Schroder, who played in only 30 games last season with averages of 8.2 points and 4.3 assists, had two years left on a $44.4 million contract. Mann, averaging 5.5 points this past season, has a more manageable salary moving forward. This trade positions the Cavaliers to pursue potential upgrades to their roster, including targets like Jonathan Kuminga and Peyton Watson, both of whom would require additional financial maneuvering to acquire.
