Leading up to the NBA trade deadline, there were rumblings that the Cleveland Cavaliers were interested in Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas. A trade never materialized, of course, and the Nets waived Thomas shortly after the deadline passed.
The Cavs, at the time, had an open roster spot and could have attempted to claim Thomas off waivers... But instead appear ready to convert Nae'Qwan Tomlin's two-way deal to a standard NBA contract, according to Chris Fedor of Cleveland.com.
Great move! Tomlin has been awesome, and while Thomas can be a game-changing scorer, he's completely one-dimensional, and with the roster turnover already coming to the Cavs, there's really no reason to bring Thomas into the fold, as it would probably bring more drama than anything else.
