Free-agent guard Danny Green has agreed to a two-year, $20 million deal to stay with the Philadelphia 76ers, his agent, Raymond Brothers of Roc Nation Sports, told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski on Wednesday night.



The deal does not include any options, according to Brothers.




Coming off a championship with the Los Angeles Lakers in the bubble, Green was traded to Oklahoma City and then flipped to Philadelphia in a subsequent deal, where he provided a steady outside presence to keep defenses honest against Joel Embiid.



Green is coming off a two-year, $30 million deal he signed to join the Lakers in the summer of 2019. The 12-year veteran had a steady regular season for Philadelphia, averaging 9.5 points while shooting 40.5 percent on 3s to go with strong defense.



However, a calf strain suffered early in the 76ers' second-round series against the Atlanta Hawks cut his postseason short.




Green, a three-time champion with three franchises, was widely praised for his leadership in the locker room during Doc Rivers' first year in Philly.



ESPN's Dave McMenamin contributed to this report.
