<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">St Paul Pioneer Press - The Timberwolves on Thursday agreed to a contract with free-agent forward Nikoloz Tskitishvili and have made offers to free-agent forwards Eddie Griffin and Mark Madsen. Tskitishvili had 25 points and 10 rebounds last Friday in his summer league debut with the Wolves. He broke a bone in his right hand in his second game and will be out about four weeks. Terms of the contract were not disclosed. "However they want to use me, they can use me," Tskitishvili said of his role with the Wolves during a phone interview. "I can do everything. I can be a rebounder. I can be a low post player if I work on my post moves more this summer. I can be a shooter. I'm ready for everything." The Denver Nuggets picked Tskitishvili fifth overall in the 2002 NBA draft. He averaged three points and 11.9 minutes in his first three seasons. In February, Denver traded him to Golden State in a package that involved Eduardo Najera. Tskitishvili, 7 feet, 225 pounds, is most well known for his shooting ability. He is only 22 years old, and the Wolves believe he has talent and potential. Rex Kalamian, who helped coach the Wolves' summer league team, spoke highly of Tskitishvili last week but said being consistent has been his biggest challenge. "I really like all the coaches," Tskitishvili said. "It seemed like they really cared about me. I loved the way the fans were excited about me when I was playing there."</div> Source
at last! a move!...it think he has room for devolpment that's for sour, but he showen in the summer league that he got it and can do good for the wolves
Skita is a pretty low risk to take on. I'm sure his contract wasn't very big, he's still young, and for someone who got to be the benchwarmer for three years, he is pretty good at not complaining. He just needs some confidence and a lot of experience. In particular, he just needs to get thrown to the sharks and get a feel for the game again. That's not really possible in practice, and is a big reason (along with confidence issues and his tweener status) that he's looked like he's lost often.
