Nemanja Bjelica isn’t going to play in Europe next season.
The 30-year-old forward will sign a three-year, $20.5 million deal with the Kings, according to a report from Yahoo Sports. The final season of the contract is not guaranteed, the report says.
Bjelica had previously agreed to a one-year contract with the 76ers. But, he never signed the deal and told the team earlier this week he planned to play in Europe in 2018-19, according to ESPN.
Bjelica spent his first three NBA seasons with the Timberwolves. He averaged 6.8 points and 4.1 rebounds in 2017-18.
Bjelica has knocked down 37.1 percent of his career 3-point attempts.
Bjelica began his career overseas in 2007 and earned EuroLeague MVP honors in 2015.
The Kings finished 2017-18 with a 27-55 record and missed the playoffs for the 12th straight season. Sacramento also signed point guard Yogi Ferrell to a two-year, $6.2 million contract Friday.
