Cavs close to a deal for struggling Kings guard

WASHINGTON, Jan. 23 (Xinhua) -- The Cleveland Cavaliers are working on a deal to acquire guard George Hill from the Sacramento Kings, according to local media.

ESPN reports that the Kings' return for Hill would include guard Iman Shumpert, forward Channing Frye, and possibly a second-round draft pick.

Hill was signed by the Kings after spending last season with the Utah Jazz. He's averaging 10.3 points, 2.8 assists and 2.9 rebounds in a career-low 27 minutes for Sacramento this season.

The struggling Cavaliers are third in the Eastern Conference with 27 wins and 19 defeats.
