Cheick Diallo could be a potential Cavs’ replacement for Tristan Thompson
The Cleveland Cavaliers could look to Cheick Diallo as a potential replacement if they could acquire him on a minimum deal for Tristan Thompson and his expiring contract.
It’s fairly obvious that the Cleveland Cavaliers‘ goal for the upcoming season is seemingly to get young players a bunch of meaningful minutes for their development, and to shed salary as they will surely be one of the worst teams in the NBA in 2019-20.
The Cavaliers employ a bevy of high-priced role players, including Tristan Thompson, who is set to make over $18.5 million next season (per Spotrac).
