Cavs pick up option on Kendrick Perkins' contract
The decision is simply a salary-cap ploy in order to try to aggregate the 33-year-old center's $2.5 million salary along with an existing contract in order to pursue a trade
The Cleveland Cavaliers have picked up option on Kendrick Perkins’ contract for next season. Perkins was signed by the Cavs for the NBA playoffs but he did not play a single minute.
Per ESPN, As much as the Cavs appreciate Perkins as a locker room presence, the decision is simply a salary-cap ploy in order to try to aggregate the 33-year-old center's $2.5 million salary along with an existing contract in order to pursue a trade around the league.
