Is Tristan Thompson Worth $82 over 5 Years?

Tristan Thompson and Cleveland have finally agreed on a deal as the Cavaliers forked out $82 dollars to the Brampton native for the next 5 years.

The deal makes Thompson the 6th highest paid power forward in the NBA, something that Sacramento King’s starting centre Demarcus Cousins took to twitter yesterday to voice his opinion on the deal,

Demarcus obviously believes that Thompson got paid way too much, but what do you guys think?

Has Tristan Thompson proven his worth or is this a case of Cleveland doing anything to keep their core nucleus together from last year?
