In this story:

The Cleveland Cavaliers were able to upgrade their roster without making a single trade at the deadline. They did this by signing Danny Green in the buyout market.

Cleveland can boost their team by making a similar move with a player that is available and on the market right now.

A report came out on Friday that the Los Angeles Clippers had waived center Moses Brown who had previously been on a two-way contract with the team. The Cavs should jump all over this opportunity and sign Brown for the remainder of the year.

We already know that he'd be a perfect fit because we've seen him on this team before. Brown was a part of Cleveland's rotation for 14 games towards the end of the 2021-22 season and even started in six of them. In those games, he averaged 6.4 points and 5.3 rebounds.

Even though this was last season, the Cavs share a similar style of play and mindset as they did last year.

According to another wing the clear number one task on Koby Altman's deadline to-do list. Not too far behind that though was to somehow get a backup center to come in behind Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley.

Robin Lopez is on the Cavs' roster and is a good veteran presence to have on the roster. However, when it comes down to it Brown would be a much better fit on the floor with the pick-n-roll offense that Clevland runs.

Standing at seven-foot-two Brown also serves as a rim protector on the defensive end.

The Cavs need to get a backup center and it would cost them no assets to sign Brown for the rest of the season. It's a no-brainer.
