Free-agent guard Damion Lee and the Phoenix Suns have agreed to a one-year contract, ESPN reported Friday.

Lee averaged 7.4 points, 3.2 rebounds and one assist across 63 games (five starts) in the regular season last year with the Golden State Warriors. He averaged 7.8 minutes through 16 games in the playoffs, putting up two points and 1.6 rebounds per contest.
