ANKARA (AA) - A Turkish basketball player in NBA, Ersan Ilyasova is set to complete his move to the Utah Jazz on Tuesday, a senior NBA insider said.

"Free agent forward Ersan Ilyasova is signing a deal with the Utah Jazz for the rest of the season, sources tell ESPN," Adrian Wojnarowski said on Twitter.

He added that Ilyasova, 33, is now in a COVID-19 testing protocol that he must complete to be a Jazz player.

Ilyasova has played for numerous NBA franchises, namely the Milwaukee Bucks, Philadelphia 76ers, Atlanta Hawks, Detroit Pistons, Oklahoma City Thunder and Orlando Magic.

He spent the majority of his NBA career in Milwaukee.

The Bucks waived the Turkish international last November.

Ilyasova has averaged 10.3 points and 5.7 rebounds in 808 NBA games.
