The Wolves added some size Thursday by signing 7-foot center Miroslav Raduljica to a 10-day contract. Raduljica is a native of Serbia who spent the 2013-14 season with the Milwaukee Bucks, averaging 3.8 points and 2.3 rebounds. He was traded to the Clippers last August, waived and had been playing with Shandong of the Chinese Basketball Association, where he averaged 18.3 points and 9.1 rebounds in 14 games this season.
Raduljica will provide depth at center, where Gorjui Dieng has been logging heavy minutes since ankle problems sidelined Nikola Pekovic. The roster spot opened up when the Wolves waived forward Jeff Adrien on Wednesday.
