When a trade breaks in the NBA, you're usually just going off media reports and banking on the fact that they have reliable sources. When the Cleveland Cavaliers traded for Luol Deng on Tuesday, that wasn't the case. Just a few moments after the news broke on Twitter, the owner of the Cavs let us know that the deal was legit.
Welcome @LuolDeng9 to the Cleveland Cavaliers!
