The contracts are for the rookie minimum and are non-guaranteed. They don't effect the team's cap space, replacing two of the four minimum cap holds that were already in place.

Standard procedure at this point of the year...

I know that, but if all Zoubek does is crash boards (and is really good at that) and score on putbacks, I honestly wouldn't mind him being an end of the rotation guy.

I really want to see this Uzoh kid. He has good size and can shoot and drive. Really think we could have a solid role player here. As for Zoubek just another Boone type player. If he rebounds well, plays good D, and finishes around the rim I will be thrilled.

Let's rephrase...if Zoubek is Twin + rebounding, I'll be happy.

Bring in the hustling, hard-working rooks.

Zoubek is huge, so either way, he'll be good for Brook to practice against.

Are you guys considering Wayne Chism for a roster spot at all? I know that he is on your summer league team.
