Forward Alize Johnson has agreed to a multiyear deal with the Brooklyn Nets worth up to $4.1 million, his agent, George Langberg.
According to Langberg, the deal is worth a maximum of $4.1 million and that his client turned down more guaranteed money from other interested teams. He earned about $100,000 on each of his 10-day deals, based on the NBA minimum salary for a player with his experience and the length of the season.
Johnson’s productivity allowed him to parlay two consecutive 10-day contracts into his new deal with the Nets.
The signing is not a big surprise, coach Steve Nash had hinted he wanted to keep Johnson around after this contract.
Johnson is averaging 7.8 points and 5.8 rebounds a game averaging a little more than 13 minutes a night for the Nets, who had signed with Brooklyn after playing for the Raptors 905 in the G-League bubble. Johnson had played in 31 games for the Pacers over the previous two seasons.
