It may not sound like a blockbuster deal, but its implications are huge. By dumping three contracts, the Cavs now have enough cap space to sign free agent LeBron James to a max contract.

After days of heavy speculation but few actual moves, this could potentially open the NBA free agency floodgates. We'll be following and updating this story as it develops.
