I like the addition! adds some more veteran leadership. He knows going in that he isn't going to be a big part of the team, probably only 10 minutes a game, but he should be a great fit!

PORTLAND, Ore. -- Veteran forward Juwan Howard has signed a one-year contract with the Portland Trail Blazers.

Howard has spent 15 seasons in the NBA and general manager Kevin Pritchard said Thursday the 36-year-old will add "veteran savvy" to the young roster.

Howard averaged 4.1 points in 42 games with Denver and Charlotte last season.

A member of Michigan's Fab Five, Howard was the fifth player selected in the 1994 draft. He has career averages of 14.9 points and 6.6 rebounds in 1,043 games.

Terms of the contract were not disclosed.
