Tristan Thompson: Starting spot in jeopardy

With the team acquiring versatile role player Jae Crowder from the Celtics, the
Cavaliers have more lineup options than in previous seasons. The addition of
Dwyane Wade is likely causing a ripple effect as well, as he’s presumed to be a
starting guard next to Derrick Rose, neither of whom are three-point threats.
With spacing a concern, coach Lue may opt to start games with Love at center
while bringing Thompson off the bench to play with a unit more
perimeter-oriented. The situation is likely worth monitoring, as it could have a
significant impact on Thompson’s (and Love’s) fantasy value.
