HOUSTON — A person with knowledge of the situation tells The Associated Press that the Houston Rockets have agreed to terms with power forward Ryan Anderson on a four-year, $80 million contract.
The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because the contract can’t be signed until Thursday.
The 28-year-old Anderson spent the past four seasons with New Orleans. He averaged 17 points and six rebounds last season.
A first-round pick of the Nets in 2008, Anderson spent his rookie season there before he was traded to Orlando. He spent three seasons with the Magic with his breakout season coming in 2011-12 when he was selected as the NBA’s most improved player after leading the league with 166 3-pointers.
Yahoo.com first reported the deal.
