Cavs’ Tristan Thompson’s reported absence should make trade less likely

The Cleveland Cavaliers have not much luck this season when it comes to health. Cleveland’s been decimated by the injury bug this year, particularly in the frontcourt. For example, Kevin Love has only played in four games due to a reported toe injury, and Tristan Thompson has missed a number of games because of reported soreness in his previously sprained left foot, including the last four for the Cavaliers. Today, the team announced that due to the foot soreness, Thompson will be additionally out for “approximately two weeks.”

The Cavs noted that the sprain that has caused the soreness initially occurred on December 10.
