Longtime Chicago center Joakim Noah is expected to sign with the Knicks when he becomes a free agent Friday, fetching a deal worth at least $18 million per year, according to The Washington Post.

Noah, 31, played in just 29 games for the Bulls last season before a shoulder injury ended his year. In New York, he would join former Bulls teammate Derrick Rose, who was traded to New York last week prior to the NBA Draft.

Noah averaged a career-low 4.3 points and 8.8 rebounds per game last season. The rebounding average was his lowest since the 2008-09 season.
