The idea of having three All-Star players from one franchise isn’t completely outlandish considering we’ve seen it in the recent past thanks to the Miami Heat.

But even the Miami Heat couldn’t crack having more than three All-Star players on the roster, something the Cleveland Cavaliers are looking to change. Come Feburary and the 2014-15 NBA All-Star Game, might the Cleveland Cavaliers have an unprecedented four players on the Eastern Conference All-Star roster?

Baring injury (and that may not even stop it), it seems given that LeBron James, Kevin Love and Kyrie Irving will all be voted in as starters for the Eastern Conference All-Stars. But where is this alleged fourth player coming from? Well, according to Sam Amico of Fox Sports, he believes the Cleveland Cavaliers will get their fourth All-Star in Dion Waiters.

Responding to a fan question about how much Waiters will progress this season, Amico not only suggested that Waiters will have a breakout season but it will be good enough to get him into the All-Star game.

"Without a doubt. I think the Cavs have FOUR All-Stars this season."

While the Cleveland Cavaliers will be immensely popular, it seems difficult to believe that Dion Waiters will be voted in so he’d likely need to get an invite from coaches.

Can he do it? So far Waiters hasn’t proven to be much more than a scorer and with James, Love and Irving his shot total is likely to go down. Still, there is room for him to put up 20 points a game. That said, it seems difficult to suggest he will make the All-Star game off that alone so the guard will need to improve his all-around game if such a unique situation is to present itself.
