    Robert "Tractor" Traylor returns
    Posted by Branson Wright May 24, 2008 23:40PM

    Cavs General Manager Danny Ferry did not waste any time once the Cavaliers were eliminated from the postseason last week.

    Robert "Tractor" Traylor will participate in the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas as a member of the Cavs, according to a source close to the situation. The summer league runs July 11-20.

    It's a tryout of sorts for Traylor, who last played in the NBA (with the Cavs) during the 2004-05 season. Traylor also played with the Cavs during the 2000-01 season.

    Traylor became a free agent after the 2004-05 season and was prepared to sign with the New Jersey Nets but the Nets' doctors discovered Traylor had an enlarged aortic valve. Traylor had corrective heart surgery in November 2006. He sat for more than a year before playing in Spain and Puerto Rico, where he has played since December.

    Based on his play in Puerto Rico (11.7 points and 7.8 rebounds in the regular season), several scouts said Traylor is ready to return to the NBA. If so, the Cavs could use some of their midlevel exception ($5.5 million) or all of their bi-level exception ($1.8 million) to sign Traylor. A possible return of the 6-8, 290 pound Traylor would mean more toughness inside for the Cavs.

    I thought he shaved his head and played for the Celtics.

    They can't spend too much on him, they are going to have to offset their meal costs.
