Would trading Max Strus be a MAJOR MISTAKE for the Cleveland Cavaliers?
“They continue to have conversations with other teams about Max Strus, maybe in a signing trade or maybe in a separate trade to kind of get off of his salary the way that they did here with Dennis Schröder and Charlotte,” Fedor revealed on the podcast.
Strus, who carries a $16.6 million annual salary, could be the next piece Cleveland looks to move as it chases restricted free agents Peyton Watson and Jonathan Kuminga. | https://www.cleveland.com/cavs/2026/08/cleveland-traded-dennis-schroder-for-flexibility-could-max-strus-be-the-next-salary-cap-casualty.html

It’s like when they gave up George niang 🤷🏾♂️, ruining the team chemistry if they get rid of max
Depends on who we trade him for.. kuminga would be a mistake.
I’d trade Strus for Peyton Watson instantly. Strus is awesome but Peyton shot 48% from 3 on catch and shoot and can guard 1-5. If they need locker room presence I’d ship tre Mann to get Niang back as a locker room guy
Word!!! Kobe trades away key pieces and dawgs. I.e. Lauri, Schroeder, now Strus
Smart strategy Powell 👌🏾
14:48 yall said that about Brunson and Kat 😂😂
