Larry Sanders might have gotten the call he’s been waiting for. This tweet, which was posted Friday afternoon, doesn’t tell you much unless you know that Sanders regularly wears goggles for one activity. Basketball. Sanders worked out for the Cleveland Cavaliers in the final week of February and met with head coach Tyronn Lue.
Sanders wasn’t signed to a contract after his workout but it’s widely assumed that the reason why had everything to do with the trade, and subsequent waiving, of Andrew Bogut.
Bogut had seemingly on the Cavs’ wishlist nearly all season as he was playing for a Dallas Mavericks squad looking like it was heading nowhere fast after a rash of injuries hit the roster and left the Mavericks season floundering.
