Tyson Chandler finally has a backup. The Knicks signed Center Cole Aldrich to a non-guaranteed deal on Tuesday, meaning that they have 19 people in training camp (the max is 20). Aldrich was drafted 11th overall in 2010, but has battled knee problems throughout his career. Aldrich is a good rebounder, a good shot blocker, and a decent scorer. He boasts fantastic per-36 minute stats of 9 points, 10.5 rebounds, and 2.5 blocks per game (2, 2.3, and 0.5 in 8 minutes). Aldrich is certainly a nice addition, and will be a good backup for Chandler… if he can stay healthy
