Sean Marks
The New Orleans Hornets have signed forward Sean Marks to help bolster their frontcourt. Terms of the contract were not disclosed in the press-release.
Sean Marks will most likely come off the bench and compete with Hilton Armstrong and Melvin Ely for minutes behind starting center Tyson Chandler. Marks is a solid rebounder who prefers to play facing the basket. He has a formidable mid-range shot that can cause havoc against other centers in the league who do not like to play perimeter defense.
The nine year veteran Marks, is the second free agent that the Hornets have acquired this summer. Last week, they also signed guard Devin Brown to an undisclosed contract as well. Marks has previously played for Toronto, Miami, San Antonio, and Phoenix.
