New Orleans Pelicans Sign Mirza Begic

According to Pelicans.com, the New Orleans Pelicans signed center Mirza Begic today.

The Pelicans didn’t disclose the terms of the deal, but it is more than likely going to be a training camp deal much the same as guys like Jeff Adrien and Jerome Jordan. This pushes the Pelicans roster 20 players, with only 13 of those players being on guaranteed contracts.

Begic is a 7-1, 265 lbs. Bosnian center who went undrafted in 2007. Since then, he has played for European powerhouses such as Real Madrid and Olympiacos in different stints. His best stint with a team came last year for Union Olimpia of the Adriatic League, averaging 9.
