ESPN.com is reporting that the Cavaliers have come to an agreement with free agent forward Anderson Varejao on a six-year, $50 million dollar deal.

Varejao may very well be the starting power forward for the Cavs now that Ben Wallace is finally gone. He has limited offensive potential, but could average nine or 10 rebounds and flirt with more than a block per game this season.

Anthony Parker-G/F-Raptors Jul. 8 - 10:51 pm et
The Cavaliers are said to be in serious discussions with Raptors free agent shooting guard Anthony Parker.

Parker would become the favorite to start at shooting guard for the Cavs, and averaged 10.7 points, 4.0 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game for the Raps last season. He's also a quality 3-point threat and shoots it well from the free throw line. But you have to think he'll have trouble scoring as much playing with LeBron.

Paul Millsap-F-Jazz Jul. 8 - 10:26 pm et
The Blazers are said to be preparing an offer to Jazz free agent forward Paul Millsap, a restricted free agent.

The offer is said to be "toxic," designed to eliminate interest from other teams. Once an offer sheet is signed, the Jazz will have seven days to match it. Given the fact that it's "toxic," the Jazz are already well into the luxury tax, and they have Carlos Boozer for another year, they could be in a position to let Millsap walk.
