Free-agent center Tristan Thompson is signing with the Cleveland Cavaliers, according to Shams Charania. The big man spent his first nine seasons of his career as a member of the Cavs organization. Since then, Thompson has bounced around quite a bit. Most recently, Thompson appeared in six games during the Los Angeles Lakers playoff run. The 32-year-old should provide leadership and depth off the bench. Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley figure to see a majority of the playing time. Thompson will ...

Through his career, he's averaged 9.0 boards, 8.4 rebounds. Nevertheless, if Thompson signs with Brooklyn, he isn't expected to receive much work. However, considering Nicolas Claxton has battled injuries over the years, Thompson could make his way into the starting lineup at various points in the year. Yet, that still won't make him an ...

Free-agent center Tristan Thompson has officially signed with the Chicago Bulls. He began the season with the Sacramento Kings, but was traded to the Indiana Pacers at the trade deadline.

Indiana Pacers center Tristan Thompson has been waived by the organization. He was traded to Indiana at the deadline and didn't last long on the rebuilding Pacers. The Chicago Bulls are expected to sign Thompson once he clears waivers. This is a significant add to the Bulls roster.

Sacramento Kings center Tristan Thompson (quad) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Fellow big man Richaun Holmes will join him on the sideline as he continues to sit out due to COVID-19 protocols. Alex Len is expected to play extended minutes with Thompson and Holmes sidelined. He has two double-doubles in his last three outings. Len sounds like someone worth considering as a streaming option or possibly a low cost DFS option for Wednesday's slate.

Sacramento Kings center Tristan Thompson has been elevated to the starting five for Friday's contest against Memphis. Thompson will be making his first start with the Kings and should see a sizable workload with Richaun Holmes (eye), Alex Len (health and safety protocols), and Marvin Bagley III (health and safety protocols) all unavailable.

The veteran didn't suit up against Orlando on Wednesday night due to a left pectoral issue, but luckily, his absence may be short-lived.

Boston Celtics center Tristan Thompson (pectoral) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Orlando Magic. He recently moved into the starting five, but that stint could be short lived. His absence would mean an immediate boost for Robert Williams. He'd see all the minutes he can handle at center, which would make him a popular fantasy option.

Boston Celtics center Tristan Thompson will move into the starting five for Sunday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. The veteran center will get the starting nod over Robert Williams. This is likely a matchup move by head coach Brad Stevens, so expect both players to get plenty of minutes. Williams remains the better fantasy option between the two even with Thompson getting the start.
