Free agent forward Kyle Kuzma has agreed to a four-year, $102M contract to return to the Wizards, agent Austin Brown told Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.
Kuzma, 27, had been linked to the Pacers, Kings and Rockets, but rarely a return to Washington. He spoke about his plans for a longer deal as far back as December — and after opting out of a $13 million contract, he received one.
Kuzma averaged 21.2 points and 7.2 rebounds, shooting 45 percent from the field and 33 percent on 3-pointers, in 64 games.
