"The Cavaliers have made it no secret they want to resign free agent Anthony Parker. They do have competition for his services, however.

Parker averaged 8.3 points and shot 38 percent behind the 3-point arc last season, but his value to the rebuilding Cavaliers extends beyond the scoresheet. His leadership qualities and professionalism could be important intangibles for a young team debuting two top-4 picks in Kyrie Irving and Tristan Thompson. "
