The Bucks have signed veteran Kenyon Martin to replenish a depleted frontcourt, reuniting the forward with former New Jersey Nets teammate and current Milwaukee coach Jason Kidd.
Martin signed a 10-day contract Friday. The team waived guard Nate Wolters to make room on the roster.
The 37-year-old Martin played 32 games last season for the New York Knicks before becoming a free agent. He worked out for the Bucks last week.
Martin has averaged 12.5 points and 6.9 rebounds over 14 seasons. He might get immediate playing time after the Bucks lost rookie Jabari Parker to a season-ending left knee injury last month.
Forward Ersan Ilyasova is also recovering from a concussion and center Larry Sanders is out for personal reasons.
Milwaukee hosts Minnesota on Friday night.
