Luke

Schenscher

Schenscher was cut by Denver on Tuesday. He’ll compete for a backup job in training camp.

That means Jamal Sampson has made the team.

Chicago made quite a find with the former Georgia Tech Yellow Jacket. The seven footer hit 5-of-6 shots Tuesday for a career-high 10-point game. With Darius Songaila out for the year and Othella Harrington in a slump, the rookie will have a role off the Bulls bench.

He signed a 10-day contract and will see some limited minutes at center, for the “centerless” Bulls. He should not have fantasy value.

“Luke’s an interesting player. He’s got size, good hands, a nice touch,” coach Scott Skiles said. “We can use size right now.” At 7'1", 265 pounds, the Georgia Tech product has skills to be a decent backup center in this league.

That means little-known guard Andre Barrett has made the team’s final 15-man roster.

He’s on the bubble for making the Bulls’ roster this season, but will have no fantasy value.

The Bulls have until 5 pm Monday to announce their final roster. The George Tech product would just see mop-up minutes behind Ben Wallace anyways. PG Andre Barrett is also competing for the last spot.

Portland signed the 7-foot-1 Schenscher to a 10-day contract from the development league’s Fort Worth Flyers on March 15, and re-signed him to another 10-day contract March 25. With the Blazers’ frontcourt riddled with injuries, the kid could get some time.
