The Cavaliers are finalizing a trade with the Pistons that will see them acquire center Andre Drummond.
Detroit will receive Brandon Knight and John Henson, both of whom are on expiring contracts. Cleveland will also send the Pistons a second-round pick. The pick will be the lesser of Cleveland’s 2023 own pick or the 2023 second-rounder Golden State owes the Cavaliers.
Drummond, the league’s premier rebounder, holds a $28.75MM option on his contract for next season and he’s expected to opt out and test a weak free agent market.
Knight is making approximately $15.64MM and Henson has a $9.73MM contract.
Drummond, who has spent his whole career with Pistons since being chosen in the 2012 lottery, is averaging 17.8 PPG and an NBA-best 15.8 RPG this season.
Tim Frazier will be waived by Detroit.
