This Cleveland Cavaliers‘ trade deadline acquisition of Andre Drummond in a deal with the Detroit Pistons, in exchange for John Henson, Brandon Knight and a future second-round pick, of which you can view the full reported details here, was the only move Cleveland made on Thursday. Cleveland held onto expiring big man Tristan Thompson, despite reports the Cavaliers were trying hard to move him.
A buyout is not in Thompson’s future, according to NBA reporter Brandon “Scoop B” Robinson, and TT will surely be losing his starting spot to Drummond as a result of Drummond’s acquisition.
