Tristan Thompson and the Cleveland Cavaliers have reached an agreement on a one-year contract, marking his return to the team. This deal bolsters the Cavaliers’ roster by adding valuable depth at the center position, providing support behind Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley.
During the previous season, Thompson played in 49 games for the Cavaliers, contributing an average of 3.3 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 1.0 assists per game over 11.2 minutes of playtime. His presence on the court will help strengthen the team’s frontcourt rotation.
It’s also worth noting that Thompson faced a 25-game suspension last season due to a breach of the NBA’s anti-drug policy, which impacted his availability and performance. His return will be keenly observed as he aims to reestablish his role and contribute positively to the team’s success.
