Zeller, 27, was one of the top remaining free agents on the market. He’ll compete for minutes behind the Nets‘ expected starting center, Timofey Mozgov.

The deal is guaranteed for the 2017-’18 season, and non-guaranteed for the 2018-’19 season, league sources said.

Zeller joins the Nets after three seasons with the Boston Celtics. In five NBA seasons, which included his first two in Cleveland, Zeller has averaged seven points and 4.4 rebounds. He had his best pro season with the Celtics in 2014-’15, averaging 10 points, 5.7 rebounds and playing 82 games.
