The Utah Jazz have agreed to terms with 7-foot-3 German center Tibor Pleiss, the team announced Tuesday afternoon. The terms of the multi-year deal were not released, but Yahoo! Sports reported last week that the deal was worth around $10 million.

Utah acquired the rights to Pleiss, who played last season with FC Barcelona of the Spanish Liga ACB, in a deal with Oklahoma City earlier this year.
