Anderson Varejao Admits His Role is ‘Tough’, ‘Not Easy’

Cleveland Cavaliers center Anderson Varejao had waited all season for his moment.

Coming off an Achilles injury and buried on the bench because of the Cavaliers’ deep frontcourt, playing time had become scarce. But his opportunity finally came on Thursday night during a throwback second half against the Milwaukee Bucks.

“It’s tough. It’s not easy,” Varejao admitted during an honest moment with a throng of reporters following the Cavs’ 115-100 win. “You never know how much you can do in practice because you never know if you’re going to play or not, but the main thing is stay ready. I had the chance to play and I was able to help the team.”
