Cavs Unlikely to deal Jack (9:15 am EST)

We have heard Jarrett Jack‘s name floated out there for the past couple of weeks with the Brooklyn Nets and Sacramento Kings listed as rumored destinations. However a source tells the Plain Dealer that the team likely won’t make a deal.

OKC targeting Iman Shumpert and Tim Hardaway Jr. (8:50 am EST)

The Thunder are interested in Iman Shumpert and Tim Hardaway Jr., a source tells Marc Berman of the New York Post. There’s a possibility Shumpert sustained damage to the MCL in his left knee last night that could keep him out for weeks, according to Berman, so that could dampen Oklahoma City’s enthusiasm. Hardaway is a “virtual untouchable,” Berman writes.
