After receiving GATORADE Call-Ups to the Cleveland Cavaliers on Feb. 22, both Kaniel Dickens and Billy Thomas have signed a second 10-day contract with the club.
In addition to guard Luke Anderson and forward John Thomas, the Colorado 14ers announced Thursday that they have added Paul Butorac and Milone Clark to the roster. Both players are expected to join the team this week and play in Colorado's next game Sunday evening at Rio Grande Valley. Butorac is a 6-10 rookie forward out of Eastern Washington who most recently played in the Baltic League. Clark is a 6-4 guard who was drafted by the Sioux Falls Skyforce in the D-League this season after playing for the Anaheim Arsenal a year ago. With the two new additions the 14ers roster now stands at ten players after Elton Brown's departure from the team.

- Gill remains the only player in the D-League to post two triple-doubles this season.
