Dion Waiters Requests Trade From Cleveland

Dion Waiters has been unhappy in Cleveland for a while now. And that’s unfortunate considering the fact that he was drafted last year. His biggest beef is that he’s not clicking with Kyrie Irving both on and off the court.

Waiters has apparently been very vocal about wanting a trade, realizing the Cavs are Irving’s team. One of his preferred destinations is Philly, but maybe he hasn’t heard of Michael Carter-Williams.

It’s no secret that the Cleveland Cavaliers have been shopping second-year shooting guard Dion Waiters, and the latest update, according to two sources who spoke with Bleacher Report, is that the Chicago Bulls and Philadelphia 76ers have emerged as the top two suitors. And both are realistic destinations based on trade assets and financial complements.

According to a source close to Waiters, he “wants out” of Cleveland and “prefers to go to Philly because he thinks he’d be the best player on the team. That’s his mindset.”
