The Cleveland Cavaliers plan to never have Andre Drummond again. According to information from ESPN, the Ohio franchise will push the center of team discipline as you work toward the goal of closing your trade.
The operation that sent James Harden to the Nets left a nice gift in Cleveland in the form of a package consisting of Taurean Prince and Jarrett Allen. The latter aims to become the ‘5’ holder of the franchise in the long term and from the organization they will try to get something in exchange for Drummond. The same medium indicates that both the general manager, Koby Altman, as the player’s agent, Jeff Schwartz, have mutually decided this outcome.
Drummond did not dress short in Sunday’s loss to the Los Angeles Clippers and will do the same in the commitment to the Golden State Warriors. “Whichever direction he takes, Andre is 27, in his prime, and I firmly believe he can be part of an aspiring playoff team,” said his agent.
The two-time All-Star is expiring But his $ 28.7 million contract makes him a very difficult player to trade. Thus, its value plummets and the counterpart could go no further than a first round. Although there were rumors that it might be cut off to call in Brooklyn, since ESPN they report that the talks have not gone that way so far. Thus, the future of Drummond points to several cities, with the Raptors as a recent potential buyer.
Either way, the Cavaliers have until March 25, the trade deadline, to close a deal for Drummond. In his ninth NBA season, the Mount Vernon is averaging 17.5 points, 13.5 rebounds and 1.2 blocks per game.
