Weird signing. I doubt he'll do anything, considering he didn't even have a team last year, and in 15-16 he wasn't very good.

Is he the best bench big they could get?
'23 Historical Draft: Orlando Magic.

PG: Terry Porter (90-91) / Steve Francis (00-01)
SG: Joe Dumars (92-93) / Jeff Hornacek (91-92) / Jerry Stackhouse (00-01)
SF: Brandon Roy (08-09) / Walter Davis (78-79)
PF: Terry Cummings (84-85) / Paul Millsap (15-16)
C: Chris Webber (00-01) / Ralph Sampson (83-84) / Andrew Bogut (09-10)

>The Cavs now have 18 players with standard contracts, and 15 – the regular-season limit – have guaranteed salaries. I doubt Cleveland wants to waive the two without guaranteed salaries, Kay Felder and Edy Tavares, either.

>In other words, Perkins is a longshot to stick into the regular season.>

Welp, in my reality, CLE has gone from the least likeable team in the NBA to perhaps the most likeable.  I'm a fan.  Woohoo CLE!  Maybe I can attend a game and crash with jpotter and moranis.

I like perk as a person so much that i can easily say good for him, take the paycheck.  If he doesn't play 10 minutes a game who cares.  A stand up guy who should cash in before his relatively short career (compared to life) ends and its coming

Cavs opting to go that Euro big instead of Perk 2 years ago really upset the locker room. Say what you want about the guy's effectiveness but he has the respect of his peers. Post Celtics he's shown to be the guy that will go out of his way to make sure that the everyone's on the same page.

33% of the cavs are now former celtics
(Crowder IT Green Perkins Zizic )
That could literally be their bench unit.

Cheap insurance, perhaps against a Zizic flop  ::)

It must be awkward for Crowder playing with Perk and JR Smith right now.
