Tristan Thompson has insisted that his role with the Cleveland Cavaliers "hasn't changed" since he was promoted to the starting lineup.
The power forward has been seeing more action with the Cavaliers following Kevin Love's season-ending shoulder injury.
The 24-year-old told ESPN: "My role hasn't changed all season. Just come in and play hard. Go hard, rebound, defend, get extra possessions and just run the floor."
Thompson has averaged over 28 minutes per game in the playoffs for Cleveland.
