The Raptors 905 got some good news today as according to Gigantes Del Basket, and later reported by Chris Reichert, Walter “Edy” Tavares will return to Mississauga and the G-League this season after being waived by the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Last season with the 905, Tavares played in 48 games while starting 41 in the regular season and averaged 10.6 points, 7.7 rebounds, and 2.7 blocks in just 23.6 minutes per game. Tavares was one of the 905’s best players last season and won the G-League Defensive Player of the Year, which was what earned him a spot on the Cavaliers in the first place.
