Sebastian Telfair picks up his 2010-11 option to stay with the Cleveland Cavaliers

24-year old point guard Sebastian Telfair appeared to be little more than a throw in when the Cavs made the big deal to land Antwan Jamison last February. But he has picked up his option valued at $2.7 million bucks to stick around with the Cavs for this season. Telfair played in 4 games (0 starts) at the end of the year for the Cavs and he averaged 19.3 minutes, 9.8 points, 1.0 rebound and 3.0 assists per game. He played in 43 games (1 start) overall for the Cavs & Clippers last season in which he averaged 15.3 minutes, 4.8 points, 1.0 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game. He has now played in 392 games (181 starts) in his NBA career and he has averaged 23.6 minutes, 7.9 points, 1.6 rebounds and 3.9 assists per game. Telfair will have to battle his way up the depth chart to get any playing time in 2010-11 for the Cavs.
