Free-agent forward Shawn Marion has committed to sign with the Cleveland Cavaliers, according to league sources.
Sources told ESPN.com that Marion informed the Cavaliers this weekend that he intends to sign with them this month, despite the fact that Cleveland can only offer him a minimum deal.

The Cavs can only offer Marion a deal worth $1.4 million because they're out of room under the salary cap.
A four-time All-Star, Marion gives Cleveland another veteran with postseason experience to compliment James, who is returning to the Cavs intent on winning the city's first pro championship since 1964. The team has previously signed shooters Mike Miller and James Jones, who won two NBA titles with James in Miami.

THe makeup of the team right now if the Love trade goes through the way it's being reported by Woj is this...
Varejao/Thompson/Kirk
Love/Marion/Thompson
LeBron/Marion/Miller
Waiters/Miller/Jones
Irving/Dellevadova
...to complete this roster we just need a rim protector. Not something to depend on, just something to have at the team's disposal if need be.
