The Cleveland Cavaliers on Sunday traded center Brendan Haywood and guard/forward Mike Miller to the Portland Trail Blazers for two second-round draft picks, Yahoo sports and several other outlets reported.

Portland also reportedly will receive two draft picks in the deal — the better of the Cavaliers’ two 2019 second-round selections and their 2020 second-rounder. Besides the two second-round picks from Portland, Cleveland also will receive $10.5 million and $2.85 million trade exceptions, according to Yahoo.

Miller, 35, averaged a career-low 2.1 points per game last season, his 15th in the NBA. Haywood, 35, whose $10.5-million contract is not guaranteed, played in only 22 games, and the Trail Blazers are expected to waive him.
