NEW YORK (Ticker) -- The New York Knicks signed free agent center Bruno Sundov on Wednesday, adding much-needed depth to their frontcourt.

Sundov appeared in five games last season - four with the Cleveland Cavaliers and one with the Knicks. The native of Croatia, who was signed to a 10-day contract by New York on January 21, 2004, averaged 2.2 points and 2.0 rebounds in 6.6 minutes.

A six-year veteran, Sundov has appeared in 81 career games, averaging 1.8 points and 1.2 rebounds for the Dallas Mavericks, Indiana Pacers, Boston Celtics, Cavaliers and Knicks.

"Bruno will add size and depth to our frontcourt," Knicks president of basketball operations Isiah Thomas said. "I have monitored his progress throughout his career. We have seen his improvement and feel we are getting him at the right stage of his development."
