PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — A person familiar with the deal confirms that the Portland Trail Blazers have agreed to a two-year contract with free agent center Festus Ezeli worth $15 million.

The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Thursday night because the deal hadn't been announced by the team. It was first reported by Yahoo Sports.

His agent, David Mondress, did not immediately respond to messages left by the AP seeking comment.

Ezeli, a 6-foot-11 native of Nigeria, was drafted with the 30th pick in the 2012 draft by the Golden State Warriors. Last season he averaged 7.0 points and 5.6 rebounds in 64 games, including 13 starts.

Ezeli missed 31 games this season after having arthroscopic surgery in February to remove debris from his left knee.

The Blazers announced earlier Thursday they had acquired guard Shabazz Napier in a trade with the Orlando Magic for cash considerations.
