Timberwolves Vice President of Basketball Operations/General Manager Kevin McHale today announced the team has agreed to terms with free agent Mark Madsen. Per team policy, terms of the agreement were not disclosed.

Madsen, a 6-9, 245-pound forward from Stanford University, averaged 3.2 points (.423 FG%), 2.9 rebounds and 14.5 minutes per game in 54 contests (started 22) for the Los Angeles Lakers in 2002-03. Madsen posted three games with 10-plus points and 12 contests in which he recorded five or more rebounds. Madsen tallied a season-high 12 points on 5-of-6 shooting at Milwaukee on March 15 and scored 10 points on 5-of-7 shooting in 13 minutes at Memphis on April 4. Additionally, he blocked a career-high four shots and registered nine points versus Houston on Feb. 18.

"Mark improves our interior presence, as he is a physical, hard-nosed basketball player," said McHale. "He can play power forward and some center and is going to improve us every day in practice and give us a physical presence in games."
