Cleveland Cavaliers are among the teams interested in acquiring Ben Simmons. The three-time All-Star made it clear to the Philadelphia 76ers that he wants a change of scenery.

One rival general manager weighed in on the rumors that suggest Cleveland being really interested in adding Simmons, taking a shot at the Cavs’ current roster.

(Per Sam Amico of HoopWire.com):

Simmons could add a different dimension to the Cavs’ roster, especially on the defensive end. However, it’s still unclear if any player of their roster could draw interest from the Sixers, who are expected to be among the title contending teams.

Cleveland is trying to make it back to the postseason for the first time since the 2017-18 season. They are hoping to do that with a young core consisted of Darius Garland, Collin Sexton, Jarrett Allen, Evan Mobley and Isaac Okoro.
