The Detroit Pistons signed former San Antonio Spurs center Aron Baynes to a multi-year contract Sunday.
Terms of the contract were not disclosed, but the deal is reportedly for three years and worth $20 million.
Baynes, appeared in 70 games (17 starts) last season, averaging career highs in points (6.6 per game), rebounds (4.5 per game) and minutes (16.0 per game). He recorded more points, rebounds, assists and blocks last season than in his previous two NBA seasons combined.
The 6-foot-10, 255-pound center has tallied career NBA averages of 4.8 points, 3.6 rebounds and 12.6 minutes in 139 games — all with San Antonio.
Baynes began his professional career in 2009-10 playing for Lietuvos Rytas of the Lithuanian Basketball League, a squad that went on to win the Lithuanian championship. He went on to play in Germany for EWE Baskets Oldenburg in 2010-11 before joining Ikaros Kallitheas in Greece the following season.
Baynes has been a member of the Australian national team, most recently competing at the 2014 FIBA World Championship in Turkey where he averaged 16.8 points, 7.0 rebounds and 27.0 minutes in five games. Representing Australia in the 2012 Olympic Games in London, he averaged 7.5 points and 3.3 rebounds while shooting 66 percent from the field.
