Lost out on Trevor Booker earlier on Tuesday? No problem. Enter Kris Humphries.

The signing of power forward Kris Humphries gives the oft-injured Washington frontcourt depth and insurance. Although he isn't nearly on-par with either Nene nor Marcin Gortat, Humphries is a serviceable player with rebounding skills and a reliable mid-range jumpshot.

With the additions of Paul Pierce and Humphries, the Wizards have found cost-effective replacement for the outgoing Trevor Ariza and Booker. Neither signing necessarily qualifies as an upgrade, but the patchwork moves does give the team the depth needed for yet another playoff run.

Humphries averaged 8.4 points and 5.9 rebounds as a member of the Boston Celtics last season.
