The Cavaliers never shy away from making midseason trades for aging guards, and this season may be more of the same.
According to Yahoo Sports, the Cavs have shown interest in acquiring Kings point guard George Hill.

Hill, 31, is averaging 10.5 points and 3.0 rebounds per game this season. The Kings have already given up on the season, exemplified by their decision to rest two veterans every game for the rest of the year.
Cleveland has lost nine of its last 13 games while struggling on offense since Isaiah Thomas' return from a hip injury. But Hill would be a curious move for the Cavaliers with Derrick Rose cleared to play, potentially causing a depth chart log jam at point guard.
Hill joined the Kings on a three-year, $57 million deal in July. He began his NBA career with the Spurs, who moved him to the Pacers in a deal for Kawhi Leonard in 2011. He He then played for the Jazz before his move to Sacramento.
The Cavs may need another dynamic offensive option to topple the Warriors, but Hill seems like a poor fit.
