Tristan Thompson

C, Cleveland Cavaliers

Several opposing teams are hoping to convince Tristan Thompson to take a contract buyout and join them for a playoff run, according to James Rapien of 92.3 The Fan.

The Cavs tried to trade Thompson prior to last week's deadline, to no avail. His fantasy value has taken a significant hit and he is now coming off the bench following the Cavs' deal for two-time All-Star Andre Drummond. TT is in the final year of his contract and due $18.5 million this season, while players must be waived or have their contracts bought out by March 1st to be eligible for the playoffs.
