The Chicago Bulls signed forward Alize Johnson to a two-year, $3.6-million deal, his agent told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.

Johnson averaged 5.2 points and five boards over 18 appearances with the Brooklyn Nets last season. He spent most of the 2020-21 campaign with the Toronto Raptors' G League affiliate, registering 16.6 points, 13.3 rebounds, 4.2 assists, and 1.3 steals per contest for the league-leading Raptors 905.

The 25-year-old's strong play earned him All-NBA G League second-team honors.

Brooklyn waived Johnson on Friday after inking seven-time All-Star LaMarcus Aldridge. The 2018 second-round pick spent the first two seasons of his career with the Indiana Pacers but made only 31 appearances with the team.

Chicago reportedly agreed to a deal with forward Stanley Johnson earlier Monday.
