Cavaliers' Tristan Thompson suspended 25 games
Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Tristan Thompson has been suspended 25 games for violating the NBA's anti-drug program.
What It Means:
Thompson will be eligible to return from suspension on March 16 against the Houston Rockets. Evan Mobley (knee) is still sidelined, so Damian Jones will likely replace Thompson as the primary backup to Jarrett Allen.
Thompson averaged 15.8 minutes and 13.4 FanDuel points over the last five games, with 4.2 points, 4.6 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 0.4 steals, and 0.4 blocks.
