Scot Pollard

Scot Pollard knows the odds of an NBA team calling on him after a year off are slim at best.

Still, the 34-year-old former Kansas University center, who played for five teams in 11 seasons before failing to receive a free-agent offer during the 2008-09 campaign, is not officially retired and is ready for duty.

“I am in very good shape, not NBA shape, but I could be quickly,” said the 6-foot-11 Pollard, who is up to 290 pounds, which he said is muscle from working out on weights, not fat. He went at 278 during his playing days.

“Physically, I feel great. It’s great to wake up every day without knee, ankle problems like past years. It’s the same story. The right offer would entice me. I will not go try out for a team,” added Pollard, who instead would want a guaranteed contract. Link

Exactly the type of player we need, he will get in there and give you that extra effort and frustrate the other teams bigs.Reminds me of Foster over in Indiana, wouldn't hurt to give this guy a spot. :thumbsup:
