The Cleveland Cavaliers are currently stuck in one of their worst slumps in the past three years and have lost four of their last six games.Following back-to-back losses against the Washington Wizards and San Antonio Spurs (the latter of which was a 103-74 beatdown), the Cavs are now tied with the Boston Celtics for the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference playoff race.Post-trade deadline acquisitions like Deron Williams and Andrew Bogut (who is now injured) haven't worked out, and after a hot start to his Cleveland tenure, former No. 2 overall pick Derrick Williams has seen his production drop as well.However, one potential source of help - big man Larry Sanders - is stuck with the Canton Charge in the D-League. He tweeted on Wednesday night that he feels ready to return to the NBA and make an impact for his struggling squad:

Based on Sanders' recent efforts in the D-League (highlights of which can be seen in the video below), he may indeed be ready to return to an NBA court in the near future:

Sanders appeared in two games for the Cavaliers after signing with the team, but didn't record any statistics (aside from two personal fouls) in his extremely limited action. With Kevin Love healthy, there wasn't much playing time to be had at the power forward position, so it was off to the D-League for Sanders.

However, with Channing Frye currently listed as the backup to Tristan Thompson, the Cavaliers could use a guy like Sanders, who is more of a true rim protector than Frye (who is more of a three-point specialist), battling for rebounds and blocking shots in the paint.

During his last full NBA season (in 2012-13), Sanders averaged 9.8 points, 9.5 rebounds and 2.8 blocks per game for the Milwaukee Bucks. Sanders also played during the 2013-14 and 2014-15 seasons, but then was suspended due to a marijuana violation. That caused the Bucks to buy out the remainder of his contract and he didn't try to land with a new squad until this year, when the Cavaliers added him to their roster.

Following a stretch of four games against the Chicago Bulls, Philadelphia 76ers, Orlando Magic and Indiana Pacers, the Cavaliers close the regular season with five tough contests against the Boston Celtics, Atlanta Hawks (twice), red-hot Miami Heat and Toronto Raptors.

Having Sanders ready for action in those last five games will be important for Cleveland's bench, so the team may want to bring him back and work him into the rotation against some of the lesser opponents over the next week.
