A steady veteran backup center and free agent who gives you real per-minute production — 10.6 and 5.7 across 22 minutes a night on 59.5% true shooting, finishing well inside (75th percentile) and even chipping in 38.3% from three on low volume. He rebounds, takes care of the ball and screens hard; the limitation is foot speed on the perimeter. A reliable, low-cost backup five.
