The Nets added to their free-agent haul Tuesday night by reportedly agreeing to terms with veteran forward Wilson Chandler.

The 6-foot-9 Chandler will sign a one-year deal with Brooklyn, Yahoo's Chris Haynes first reported.

Chandler, 32, played in 51 games for the Philadelphia 76ers and Los Angeles Clippers last season and averaged 6.0 points and 4.2 rebounds. 

Chandler was a first-round pick by the Knicks in 2007 and was sent to Denver in 2011 as part of the trade that brought Carmelo Anthony to New York. For his career, Chandler has averaged 12.9 points and 5.3 rebounds per game.

The Nets, of course, have been the talk of the NBA this week after landing Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving and DeAndre Jordan in free agency.

They did lose one of their own free agents Tuesday, as power forward Jared Dudley reportedly agreed to a one-year, $2.6 million deal with the Los Angeles Lakers. Dudley averaged 4.9 points and 2.6 rebounds per game last season.
