The Nets, in desperate need of frontcourt help, agreed to a contract Monday with unrestricted free-agent big man Tyler Zeller.
The deal was first reported by ESPN and confirmed by The Post.
It’s a two-year deal with the second non-guaranteed, and with Nets having used most of their cap space to take on salary dumps, it is expected to be at the veteran’s minimum or not much more.
The 7-foot, 253-pound Zeller has career averages of seven points per game and 4.4 rebounds in five seasons spent with the Cavaliers and Celtics. Not overwhelming by any stretch, but considering declining Timofey Mozgov and spindly rookie Jarrett Allen are the only Nets over 6-foot-8, Zeller will add much-needed size.
