Andrew Miller will accept a three-year, $22 million offer to sign with the Portland Trail Blazers, a source close to the free-agent guard said on Friday.
The first two seasons of the contract are guaranteed while the third year is a team option.
Trail Blazers general manager Kevin Pritchard cautioned that “nothing is done yet.” But a source close to Miller said he has decided to take the offer and will sign with the Blazers.
Miller will give the Trail Blazers a veteran point guard to help steady their young roster.
Miller is a good signing for the Blazers. He's a big upgrade from Steve Blake. Portland needs a guy who can distribute the ball among Brandon Roy, LaMarcus Aldridge, Greg Oden and others.
This signing makes Portland the #3 team in the West, behind the Lakers and Spurs.
