The Cavs had recently signed Ferrell to a 10-day contract. Now, Cleveland has a plethora of centers with Allen, Andre Drummond and JaVale McGee all on the roster.
Drummond and Allen are both in the final years of their contracts.
Allen will be a restricted free agent at the end of the season, meaning that the Cavs can match any offer sheet for him.
