Dean Wade Gets Multi-Year Deal With Cavs
Dean Wade will have his two-way contract converted into a multi-year deal. He averaged 14.2 points, 7.5 rebounds, and 2.4 assists during his time in the G-League this season. However, reliable forward minutes in Cleveland might be hard to come by next season. Kevin Love remains on the roster and the organization just signed forward Jordan Bell to a two-year deal. Maybe Wade could have some fantasy value if the Cavs are able to find a suitor for Love this offseason. Most likely, Wade will be a depth player off the bench, but won't hold much fantasy value.

Dean Wade To Be Re-Evaluated In Two Weeks
Dean Wade (knee) will be re-evaluated in approximately two weeks, the team announced. He will be out for a third consecutive game as the Cavaliers visit Miami on Wednesday. Wade was hurt in a game against the Philadelphia 76ers last week and has been diagnosed with a right knee bone bruise. Max Strus has cemented his place in the starting lineup during Wade's absence. Although he hasn't been quite like his usual self after missing a significant portion of the season due to an ankle injury, Strus will head into Wednesday's action following back-to-back strong performances.
