The Cleveland Cavaliers have already had a busy offseason and free agency. Despite operating without GM David Griffin, the Cavs have re-signed Kyle Korver and signed PG Jose Calderon. However, the Cavs could still add another player or two if they're willing to sign on the cheap.
There are more than just three players the Cavs could sign, but we've narrowed it down. That also excludes re-signing players (like Derrick Williams), though it does include some potential free agents. Here are three players the Cavs could still add in free agency.
UPDATE:
Zach Randolph has signed with the Kings.
Carmelo Anthony
Yes, okay, this technically cheating. Anthony isn't a free agent yet and there's a good chance the Knicks don't buy him out or flip him to the Houston Rockets. But if Anthony is bought out, he's a prime target for the Cavs. The presence of his good friend LeBron James, the fact money isn't a big deal with a buyout and the chance to win all makes the Cavs the favorites for Anthony if he's bought out.

Jamal Crawford
Once the three-way sign-and-trade involving Crawford goes through, the Hawks are expected to buy him out. So, this one is cheating a bit, but Crawford's chances of hitting the open market are pretty close to 100 percent. The Warriors are the front-runner, but the Cavs also have interest. Crawford would give the Cavs another scoring option off the bench, reducing the burden on the Cavs Big 3.
Zach Randolph
Here's the only current free agent on the list. The Cavs have targeted Randolph since the start of free agency. Randolph put up 14.1 points and 8.2 rebounds per game for the Grizzlies last year and he'd provide the Cavs with some much need big man depth. However, there's plenty of interest in the soon-to-be 36-year-old and Memphis wants him back. Plus, money is tight for the Cavs. Would Randolph be willing to sign at a discount to chase a ring?
