POSTED: 12:24 pm PDT September 5, 2008

(Sports Network) - The Cleveland Cavaliers signed veteran center Lorenzen Wright to an undisclosed contract Friday.

Wright, 32, played in 13 games last season with the Atlanta Hawks and five games with the Sacramento Kings, averaging 0.8 points and 2.1 rebounds per contest.

The 6-foot-11, 255-pound center was originally drafted by the Los Angeles Clippers with the seventh overall pick in the 1996 NBA Draft and has played in 761 career games (445 starts) with averages of 8.1 points and 6.5 rebounds per game.

"Lorenzen brings us valuable size and experience and adds depth to our front court," Cleveland general manger Danny Ferry said. "We think he's a good fit for us and look forward to him joining our team."
