CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The Cavs keep working to fortify their roster.
Sources tell cleveland.com that they have agreed to acquire guard Lonzo Ball from the Chicago Bulls in exchange for swingman Isaac Okoro. Sources say there is nothing else involved in the deal.
Cleveland had been shopping Okoro, the No. 5 overall pick on the 2020 NBA Draft in recent weeks, hoping to find an on-court upgrade.
Enter Ball, the 27-year-old second-overall pick whose career was nearly derailed by serious knee injuries. After missing two consecutive seasons, Ball returned to action with the Bulls in 2024-25, averaging 7.6 points, 3.4 rebounds and 3.3 assists in 35 games.
