CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) - The NBA trade deadline is just 3 weeks away but Cavs fans shouldn’t expect major moves by their team, NBA analyst Brett Siegel told 19 News.
The Cavs [have the league’s biggest payroll](https://www.spotrac.com/nba/cap) by far and are “heavily hampered” by the [NBA’s second apron](https://sports.betmgm.com/en/blog/nba/what-is-the-second-apron-explanation-nba-bm06/), Siegel said.
Cleveland is currently 7th in the East at 22-19 and face the 76ers tonight.
