New York Knicks Sign Kelvin Cato

The 6'11", 275lb center Kelvin Cato was signed today just after the New York Knicks announced the waiving of Elton Brown, Million Clark, Nikoloz Tskitishvili, and Paul Miller.

Cato has been known to be an effective shot blocker over the years. He spent last season on the Pistons and two previous season with the Magic.

It is assumed that this pickup is insurance in case Jerome James never recovers from his planar fasciitis. Starting center Eddy Curry, although effective at time offensively, has shown very little this preseason in terms of rebounding and shot blocking.

The roster now stands at the maximum of 15.
