    Two players have NBA experience: 6-foot-8 forward James Thomas, who saw time last year with Portland, Cleveland and Atlanta; and 6-5 swingman Ime Udoka, who played in four games during the 2003-04 season with the Los Angeles Lakers.

    The other invitees, all rookies, are 6-10 forward Herve Lamizana of Rutgers, 6-5 guard Olu Famutimi of Arkansas, and 7-foot center Steve Castleberry of Rider.

    Thomas, 24, spent time in the training camp of the San Antonio Spurs last season. After he was cut, he played 35 games with the Roanoke Dazzle and led the National Basketball Developmental League in rebounding with 13.3 boards per game. He also averaged 12.4 points.

    In 11 games with three teams, Thomas averaged 2.4 points and 3.4 rebounds. He also played with the Cavaliers' 2005 summer-league team, averaging 2.5 points and 4.3 rebounds.</div>
