Ronnie Brewer will join the Chicago BullsA league source confirmed to FanHouse that shooting guard Ronnie Brewer has agreed to terms on a three-year, $12.5 million deal in which the final year is nonguaranteed. The fifth-year pro who had also been in negotiations with Boston jumped at the chance to join former Utah teammates and fellow recent additions Carlos Boozer and Kyle Korver in the Windy City, where the Bulls continue to add to a roster that is clearly among the league's best.

They may not be done, however, as sources indicate they are still in discussions with free-agent center Brad Miller. The former Bulls big man is still considering the Bulls, Houston and Atlanta, but the Bulls -- depending on their level of desire -- have the most remaining money available with $7.8 million of salary-cap space left. According to K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune, their focus is on adding a big man and a backup point guard.

Brewer has averaged 10.3 points per game and shot 52.1 percent in his four seasons. After spending his first three-plus seasons in Utah, he was traded to Memphis last season but played just five games after suffering a hamstring injury. The deal was first reported by Sam Smith of Bulls.com.
