The 76ers have signed reserve center Calvin Booth to replace Steven Hunter as Samuel Dalembert’s backup at center. Booth is known most for his defense because he’s not a good offensive player. He played in 44 games (1 start) last season for the Wizards and he averaged 8.6 minutes, 1.6 points, 1.8 rebounds and 0.4 assists per game. He hit 47% of his shots from the floor and 75.3% from the free throw line.

Booth has now played in 327 games (83 starts) in his NBA career and he has averaged 12.9 minutes, 3.5 points, 2.9 rebounds, 0.4 assists and 1.0 block per game. He has hit 45.3% of his shots from the floor and 75.3% of his shots from the free throw line during his career. Don’t expect a whole lot of him when he’s on the court but he won’t hurt the team when he’s on the floor.
