The Trail Blazers plan to sign free-agent big man Sean Marks, according to league sources.

 

Marks will replace Fabricio Oberto, who retired due to heart issues on Thursday.

 

Marks was was one of five players invited to a Friday workout at the team's practice facility, and he beat out Earl Barron, Eric Boateng, Dwayne Jones and former Blazer Shavlik Randolph.

Seriously, what's wrong with Earl Barron? He averaged a double-double in his stint with the Knicks last season. Yes, I know it was a small sample size and yes, it was the Knicks who at that time had no one else but David Lee who is a scorer in the post, but he should be on an NBA team if dudes like Shawne Williams and Maurice Ager can get another chance.
