The Cleveland Cavaliers have discussed a potential move which would see the expiring contract of Wally Szczerbiak go to Washington for leader Antawn Jamison, Ian Thomsen from Sports Illustrated is reporting.

The Wizards are believed to be reluctant to give up their leader, but if the deal goes through it may push the Cavaliers even higher up in the East.  Jamison is averaging 21.4 points and 9.1 rebounds this season.

"If Cleveland can get Jamison, that will be a home run," said an Eastern Conference executive with knowledge of the talks. "Jamison would give them a big boost -- he can finish games with them, and he's a slasher who will get more open shots playing with LeBron. I think that would clinch [the NBA Finals] for them. Boston would have a tough time with them."
