Thompson, Cavaliers fail to reach agreement

The Cleveland Cavaliers and restricted free agent Tristan Thompson failed to come to a contract agreement prior to the team's media day on Monday.

The Cavs did not accept Thompson's most recent offer of a three-year maximum contract that his side put on the table last week.

It now seems likely Thompson will miss the start of practice Tuesday, but the sides are not framing the situation as a holdout at this point.
