In a desperate move for some size, the Toronto Raptors signed 3rd year center, Loren Woods to a free-agent contract yesterday.

Woods has had a lackluster career in the NBA thus far, averaging 2.6 pints and 2.3 rebounds a game for the Timberwolves and the Heat.  In spite of these numbers, the Raptors are still optimistic.

"Everything he brings right now is potential," Toronto general manager Rob Babcock said, trying to shed a little light on the matter yesterday. "He's not a proven centre in this league yet."
