Clippers Trade Forward Sam Dekker to Cavaliers for Draft Rights, Cash Considerations
The Cleveland Cavaliers have acquired Clippers forward Sam Dekker in an exchange that sends the draft rights to power forward Vladimir Veremeenko to Los Angeles, Cleveland announced.
The Cavs will also receive draft rights to shooting guard Renaldas Seibutis and cash considerations from the Clippers. Both Veremeenko and Seibutis play internationally.
Dekker's trade allows the Clippers to clear a roster spot before the start of training camp this fall. They will need to trade or waive one additional player in order to retain point guard Patrick Beverly, who is on a non-guaranteed contract.
