Bradford spent two season at Kansas State where he started 27 games. Last season he was with Wake Forest where he averaged 2.5 points and 2.0 rebounds in just 10.0 minutes per contest. Kaosi Ezeagu and Clarence Jackson appear to be the primary benefactors in Bradford doesn't secure a waiver.

A week later, Saturday, he appeared to be a healthy scratch.
