San Antonio Spurs center Zach Collins has agreed to an extension, the team announced on Sunday.
It’s a two-year, $35 million deal, per ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.
Collins is the third San Antonio player to receive an extension ahead of the 2023-24 season, joining guards Devin Vassell and Tre Jones who reached agreements earlier in the offseason.

Collins spent his first four seasons with the Portland Trail Blazers and was out for the entire 2020-21 season due to ankle surgeries. He played a career-best 77 games in his sophomore season (2018-19) with the Blazers.
Preseason performance: Collins played four of the Spurs’ five preseason matchups and averaged 14.3 points, 6.3 rebounds and 4.8 assists.
