Free-agent center Robin Lopez has agreed to a one-year, $5-million contract with the Orlando Magic, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
Lopez enlists with the Magic after averaging nine points and 3.8 rebounds in 19.1 minutes per game across 71 contests in one season with the Washington Wizards.
His move to Orlando marks the eighth franchise of the 7-footer's 13-year NBA career. Lopez has also made stops in Phoenix, New Orleans, Portland, New York, Chicago, and Milwaukee.
The 33-year-old should provide veteran experience to a young group of centers that includes Wendell Carter Jr., Mo Bamba, and Moe Wagner.
