Mirza Teletovic Signs With New Jersey Nets: Nets Continue Reload With Bosnian Star

The New Jersey Nets have reached an agreement with forward Mirza Teletovic of Bosnia, according to a report from Howard Beck of the New York Times.

The deal is reportedly for the mid-level exception:

Teletovic, 26, is regarded as one of basketball's premier overseas talents. The 6-foot-9, 242-pounder can play both forward positions, averaging 21.7 points and 6.0 rebounds last season in the Euroleague, according to his Draft Express profile. He also hit more than three 3-pointers per game while drilling 43.1 percent of his attempts.

The move continues the Nets' reloading of their roster, one day after they traded for Joe Johnson.
