The Chicago Bulls have reportedly re-signed restricted free-agent big man Nikola Mirotic to a two-year, $27-million contract, according to The Vertical's Shams Charania.

The reported deal will include a team option for the second season, ESPN's Brian Windhorst reports. Mirotic will have the power to veto any trade during the first year of the contract, according to Charania.

The 6-foot-10 forward was one of the few restricted free agents remaining on the market, along with JaMychal Green and Alex Len - who reportedly signed his qualifying offer with the Phoenix Suns on Sunday.

Mirotic, 26, averaged 10.6 points, 5.5 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 0.8 steals, and 0.8 blocks in 70 games for the Bulls this past season.
