Cavs’ Bennett Open to Playing in D-League

Even before he didn’t play a minute in a 120-118 victory over the Lakers on Tuesday night, rookie Anthony Bennett was being asked whether he’d be interested in going down to play with the Cavaliers’ owned-and-operated NBA Development League franchise in Canton.

“It’s something I’d think about, for sure,” Bennett said before Tuesday’s game. “It’s not a bad thing, especially going down there, hopefully playing a lot, going out there, building my confidence.”

For now, Bennett says he’s just trying to make up for a lost summer after shoulder surgery. As recently as three weeks ago in Boston, he referred to himself as ”clueless.”
