The Timberwolves today announced the team has waived center Darko Milicic, designating him as the team's amnesty player.

The one-time amnesty provision allows a team to waive a player and not have his salary count against the salary cap or luxury tax.

Milicic spent parts of three seasons as Minnesota's starting center, averaging 7.7 points, 4.8 rebounds and 1.6 blocks over 122 games, including 110 starts with the Wolves.
