Fantasy Analysis
The Cavaliers are expecting the return of several players from injury, which made Thompson expendable on the roster. He appeared to suffer a shoulder injury against the Celtics, but that did not hamper him afterward as he logged at least 20 minutes in the past two games. Fantasy owners should not consider him a worthwhile option for now. (Updated 02/06/2012).
