Free Agent Profile: Dan Gadzuric

Gadzuric is the fourth profile of the not unlikely, but not terribly likely the Knicks will pick up this free agent list. Gadzuric made $7.2 million last season.

Center
Played last season with the New Jersey Nets.
6'11'' 240lbs Age 33. Career averages of 4.7 PPG and 4.4 RPG. (2.8/3.2)

This profile may be irrelevant considering the fact that he signed a contract to play in China. However, assuming he is able to get an out clause in his Chinese deal, Gadzuric would be a decent option for the Knicks. I won't waste much time considering his contractual obligations, but in summary: Gadzuric is an unimpressive center that can provide a body on the inside for rebounding and may be willing to accept a 1 year minimum deal for the promise of increased playing time and a chance to reestablish himself in the NBA. He literally can do nothing well, but he is a mediocre rebounder. The Knicks could use him as an insurance policy for Ronny Turiaf, stealing minutes from the old man's back. Other than that, don't hold your breath and if we do end up signing him, don't go jumping for joy.

Player most likely to be waived to add this player: Jerome Jordan
