The Bobcats just signed Primoz Brezec in the wake of an impressive summer league in which the Slovenian-born center averaged 14.5 points and 6.7 rebounds.

"We were very happy when we had the opportunity to take Primoz in the expansion selection and we're delighted to be able to keep him on our roster for the next several years," Bobcats head coach Bernie Bickerstaff said Thursday in a prepared statement.

Mr. Brezec was taken by the Bobcats in the expansion draft from the Pacers where he played only 5.5 minutes a game.
