[外電] 2 more Big men added to roster...
Two weeks after Miami Heat President Pat Riley said the team may have to hold
veteran center Jermaine O'Neal out of some practice sessions this season, the
team added two more big men to its roster for training camp.
With O'Neal likely to be given time off during two-a-days to rest his legs, the
Heat has added former San Antonio Spurs center Anthony Tolliver and Georgia
Tech rookie Alade Aminu to its roster for camp, which opens Monday at
AmericanAirlines Arena.
Tolliver, 6-9, went undrafted out of Creighton in 2007, splitting 2007-08
between the NBA Development League and the German League. He appeared in 19
games last season with San Antonio, averaging 2.7 points. He also had a 10-day
contract last season with the New Orleans Hornets, but did not get into a game.
Aminu, 6-10, went undrafted last June, after spending four seasons at Georgia
Tech, averaging 11.8 points, 8.0 rebounds and 1.8 blocked shots as a senior. He
worked out for the Heat prior to last June's draft and fancies himself as a
Chris Andersen type.
The moves leave the Heat with six players in camp who can play center: O'Neal,
Tolliver, Aminu, Joel Anthony, Jamaal Magloire and Andre Brown.
The addition of Tolliver and Aminu brings the Heat roster to 18, two below the
NBA's preseason limit. Teams can carry a maximum of 15 during the regular
season, which opens Oct. 28 for the Heat against the visiting New York Knicks.
