Ante Zizic

Zizic will spend next year overseas and it's possible we've seen the last of him in the NBA.

The Cavaliers declined Zizic's $3.8M option for the 2020-21 season, but it doesn't mean the Cavs have no interest in bringing him back. In fact, beat writer Chris Fedor reported several months ago that there's a "strong possibility" they bring him back because of how much they like him, but it's possible that it hinges on what happens with Andre Drummond's player option for 2020-21. 

Zizic's minutes were a result of the Cavs' injury woes, with both Andre Drummond (sore calf) and Tristan Thompson (left knee) out of commission. If he can't produce with those guys out, he's not even worth owning in deep leagues.

Zizic was available in Friday's 113-108 win over the Wizards, but it took an absence from Kevin Love (Achilles) in the second half of the back-to-back set Saturday in order for the 23-year-old to pick up minutes. The appearance was Zizic's first since Jan. 11, as he had been sidelined nearly a month and a half while recovering from a vestibular condition.
