According to reports, the Cleveland Cavaliers are reportedly interested in New Orleans Pelicans:
The Cavaliers are showing strong interest in acquiring Pelicans forward Ryan Anderson, sources said.

Which could open the door for the Celtics to acquire forward Kevin Love, according to Sherrod Blakely of CSNNE.com.
"The particulars of the deal are still in the discussion phase, but the end result if it comes to pass would send Love to Boston, according to a league source."
Love has been a target of Boston general manager Danny Ainge for some time now. If the Cavaliers did move the former All-Star, you'd have to expect some combination of established veteran (likely Anderson), draft picks and complimentary players.
The Celtics are also reportedly interested in Atlanta Hawks center Al Horford.
