Tristan Thompson scores 21, grabs nine boards in win over Boston

Tristan Thompson is destroying in his sophomore season. The Cleveland Cavaliers power forward has excelled in Anderson Varejao's absence (out for the season with a blood clot in his lung).

In 40 minutes Tuesday, Thompson threw down on the Celtics on the way to a 95-90 win. Thompson finished with 21 points (9-18 FG, 3-3 FT), nine rebounds, five assists, a steal and a block.

Thompson has had an excellent January: 14.1 points, 11.9 rebounds, 1.8 assists, .8 steals and .3 blocks. The blocks could be much, much better. But the former Texas Longhorn is putting together a solid season, and he should be owned in all leagues (63 percent owned in Yahoo).
