Brendan Haywood has something to prove after missing last year with foot injury

Posted Sep 30, 2014
Brendan Haywood has $10.5M due, which makes him a very valuable trade piece if the Cavs are planning to add one more star, creating a "Big Four." Written off by many, Haywood, 34, is eager to show that he can still play meaningful minutes on a title contender. "I have to prove to a lot of people that I'm still healthy and still capable of what I did before," Haywood said on Friday. (Cleveland Plain Dealer)
