The Chicago Bulls have traded Mike Dunleavy to the Cleveland Cavaliers and Jose Calderon to the Los Angeles Lakers in order to clear cap space for Dwyane Wade to sign with them.
The original deal had Dunleavy going to the Milwaukee Bucks. However, Wade and LeBron James had been hanging out this summer, and Wade made sure that if Chicago wanted him, they would trade Dunleavy to the Cavaliers.
