The Spurs are finalizing a three-year agreement with big man Jakob Poeltl, Shams Charania of The Athletic tweets. The deal will be worth approximately $27 million, Charania adds.
Poeltl was a restricted free agent, since the Spurs extended a qualifying offer of $4.6 million. That was a signal that San Antonio intended to keep him on a multi-year deal.
Poeltl began his career with Toronto and has spent the last two seasons in San Antonio. Last season, he averaged 5.6 PPG, 5.7 RPG and 1.4 BPG in 17.7 MPG while appearing in 66 games, including 18 starts.
