Worth looking at as a short-term back-up center or is he too small?

I say he is too small to play center. Also he just hides in the corner and wait for three point shots. So I don't want him, though he could stretch the floor for us.

Well it's an attractive idea to have someone who could stretch the floor on offense and who posted a block and a steal a game on defense when he got the minutes. I quickly edited my original post though, after checking his height and weight. I could have sworn he was listed as a 6'11 F/C when he was in Chicago. Now he appears to be 6'9". Is that just my bad?

yeah- he is really an undersized PF, no chance he can play center.

He played less games last year than Flip. While I remember him as a key to the Cavs run to the NBA Finals 2 years ago, he appears to have been hurt all year.
When he did play, his FG% was not good probably because of limited minutes.
Could he help? He would probably help more behind Marvin than any other position.
