It is only a matter of time before Andrew Bynum is sent packing by the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Cavs are just waiting for the right deal. So far, reports have swirled around a possible return to the Los Angeles Lakers for Bynum, in exchange for the expiring contract of Pau Gasol. However, over the last 24 hours, a new suitor has emerged and it's...the Utah Jazz. And wait until you hear who the deal could revolve around.

Andrew Bynum latest co-reporting w/@WindhorstESPN: ESPN sources say among options Cavs now weighing is trade for Utah's Richard Jefferson
Sources tell ESPN that Cavs remain in Bynum-for-Pau talks with Lakers but also now engaged with Jazz on potential deal for R. Jefferson

That's right, folks. Richard. Jefferson. Even though Jefferson is shooting a solid 42 percent from three-point range, he's averaging a pedestrian 10 points per game. This latest news could be a sign of how desperate the Cavs are trying to deal an unwanted Bynum after talks with L.A. have reportedly stalled over the Lakers' desire to acquire another player in a trade. Whatever the case, this saga needs to come to an end...and soon.
