Cavs, Andrew Wiggins near deal
By Brian Windhorst | ESPN.com
The Cleveland Cavaliers are planning to sign No. 1 overall draft pick Andrew
Wiggins to a contract in the coming week, according to sources close to the
process.
据熟悉情况的消息人士透露骑士计划在本周与选秀状元Andrew Wiggins完成正式签约仪式
。
Sources told ESPN.com that the Cavaliers' delay in signing the former Kansas
star has nothing to do with the prospect of Wiggins being dealt to the
Minnesota Timberwolves as part of Cleveland's ongoing trade discussions for
Kevin Love.
有人说骑士迟迟没有和Wiggins签约是故意拖延时间，因为Wiggins很可能被当作交易筹码
被送到灰狼，但消息人士否认了这个说法。
The Cavaliers, sources say, are merely exploring options for using their
estimated $1.4 million in remaining cap space before signing Wiggins to a
contract that will pay him in the neighborhood of $5.5 million as a rookie.
骑士可能会给Wiggins开出550万美元左右的合约，在此之前他们还有140万元的薪资空间
可以利用，而骑士一直在琢磨这一点，消息人士透露。
The Cavs and Timberwolves have been discussing a Love trade since the return
of LeBron James, with sources saying that Minnesota is insistent on getting
Wiggins back in any deal that sends Love to Cleveland.
自从LBJ回归骑士后，骑士和灰狼已经有过Love交易案的讨论，但有消息说灰狼方面在谈判
过程中态度很强硬，无论是什么样的交易方案，Wiggins都必不可少。
Once Wiggins signs, though, league rules stipulate that the Cavs must wait 30
days before trading him.
依照联盟的相关规定，一旦骑士和Wiggins正式签约，他们在30天内是无法交易Wiggins的
。
One option under consideration for the Cavs, sources say, is using their
leftover salary-cap space to create long-term contracts for recent
second-round picks Joe Harris and Dwight Powell. Signing Wiggins first would
preclude such moves.
也有一个说法是，骑士打算用仅有的薪资空间去给次轮新秀Joe Harris和Dwight Powell
签长约，而Wiggins则是他们这么做的最大障碍。
The Cavs' delay in formalizing Wiggins' contract has garnered extra attention
because of the Love factor, but the reality is that this process is a fairly
routine bit of salary-cap management that takes place this time of year with
draft picks.
骑士迟迟没签下Wiggins这件事因为Love的因素格外受到关注，但实际情况是这个过程
只是球队处理薪资空间上限的例行公事，每年的这个时候总是会和选秀签这件事一起考虑
。
Once the Cavs exhaust their cap space and sign Wiggins, they are expected to
officially sign free agent Mike Miller to a two-year, $5.6 million deal. The
Cavs will be signing Miller with their $2.7 million "room" exception, which
can only be used after teams that previously had salary-cap room use it up.
一但骑士用完剩下的薪资空间去签Wiggins的话，那他们本来要用2年560万签下Mike
Miller的，这样就只能用270万空间特例去签Miller了。
The Cavs also remain interested in free agent Ray Allen, who is being
recruited to Cleveland by former teammates Miller and LeBron James. But
Cleveland will only be able to offer him a $1.4 million veteran's minimum
contract.
骑士目前也对LBJ和Mike Miller的前队友Ray Allen保持兴趣，但骑士只能给他一纸140万
的老将底薪合约。
