Cavs News: Tristan Thompson Agrees to Five-Year, $82M Extension

Tristan Thompson Agrees to Five-Year, $82M Extension

The wait is finally over.

According to Cleveland.com, the Cleveland Cavaliers and power forward Tristan Thompson have agreed to a five-year, $82 million contract extension.

The last rumored report had the Cavaliers having a five-year, $80 million on the table, however it seems that Thompson and his agent Rich Paul have negotiated their way to the $82 million extension instead.

Thompson, who was an integral part of the Cavs’ frontline last season as he averaged 8.5 points and 8.0 rebounds, may be the final piece to the Cavaliers’ championship puzzle.

Also worth nothing, Thompson is now the 6th highest paid power forward behind Kevin Love, LaMarcus Aldridge, Blake Griffin, Paul Millsap, and David Lee.
