Restricted free agent Johnny Juzang has agreed to a four-year deal to return to the Utah Jazz, ESPN reported Friday.

The deal, which is reportedly worth $12 million, comes after Juzang played on consecutive two-way contracts for the Jazz the past two seasons.

Juzang, 23, shot 41.6 percent on 3-pointers last season while averaging 7.2 points, 1.8 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 20 games (5 starts).

He appeared in 18 games the previous season, no starts, averaging 4.8 points and shooting 23.8 percent from beyond the arc.

After playing college ball alongside Tyrese Maxey and Immanuel Quickley at Kentucky, Juzang transferred to UCLA. The Los Angeles native was undrafted.
