Report: Shaq Heading To Cleveland

By Mike Cosentino • June 25, 2009

According to early morning reports, the Phoenix Suns and the Cleveland Cavaliers have agreed in principle on a trade that would see center Shaquille O’Neal play with MVP LeBron James in Cleveland.

The reported trade is that Cleveland receives O’Neal for center Ben Wallace, guard Sasha Pavlovic, Cleveland’s 2nd-round pick for this year’s draft (46th overall), and cash.

Last season, the 37-year old averaged 17.8 points a game and 8.4 rebounds per game.

There is expected to be an announcement later this morning regarding the deal.
