Look for the Cleveland Cavaliers to go to Andre Drummond early on in games next season, assuming he’s back.

It seems almost certain that Andre Drummond will be back with the Cleveland Cavaliers next season. Drummond is reportedly likely to pick up his $28.8 million player option, and for his sake, that’d be a no-brainer move.

Now, it is uncertain if Drummond can be a long term fit with the Cavs, though. As a traditional center that is a non-shooter, let alone three-point shooter, Drummond is not a player that teams seem to place really high value on in today’s NBA.
