## Resource

Max Strus could be headed out the door in free agency, as the Cavs weigh trading him to create cap space for re-signing Dean Wade — a move that’s heating up with Strus’s $19M final-year contract looming. While he’s a proven playoff shooter and defender, nagging injuries — including a foot fracture and wrist issue — sidelined him last season, opening the door for Jaylon Tyson’s breakout. With Wade’s contract likely to be pricey and Strus’s role potentially replaceable, Cleveland’s financial calculus could push them toward a trade — even if Strus remains a valuable piece.
