The Chicago Bulls have added experience into their roster by re-signing 16-year veteran center Nazr Mohammed for this coming season.
Mohammed, 37, has played for 8 different teams in his entire career and the last two seasons were spent with Bulls—he averaged 2.0 points and 2.6 rebounds with a limited amount of playing time. But despite this, he has truly proven that he can remain dependable with grabbing rebounds and in defense.

With the newly acquired Pau Gasol—the veteran will surely find it difficult to receive any minutes. The team may rely further on the experience he can offer to the young players in the locker room. It’ll be a good mental boost for the team throughout the season and a good way to sharpen the future stars of the league.
Throughout his 16 years in the NBA, he has tallied averages of 5.6 points and 4.8 rebounds while shooting .487 from the field.
