Kevin Durant didn't go for a spectacle in announcing where he'll be for the next five years.

Instead, Durant simply posted an update on his Twitter page Wednesday, saying he'd agreed to a five-year contract extension with the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Durant's spokeswoman, Mary Ford, said he will receive the maximum deal possible, $85 million over five years. The reigning NBA scoring leader is signed with the Thunder through next season under his original rookie contract, which would pay him about $5 million next year.

Boozer agrees to deal with Bulls • Carlos Boozer is headed to the Chicago Bulls. The two-time All-Star forward agreed to a deal on Wednesday and is leaving the Utah Jazz after six seasons, a source told The Associated Press.

Several outlets have reported it's a five-year deal, and the Chicago Tribune cited a source saying the Bulls would still have enough room to offer a maximum salary contract to another free agent. The NBA set the salary cap at $58.04 million for next season on Wednesday.

Allen stays with Celtics • Ray Allen confirmed that he has agreed to a two-year, $20 million contract to return to the Boston Celtics. Allen, who turns 35 this month, was a free agent. Allen averaged 16.3 points last season as the Celtics reached the finals for the second time in three years.

Clippers hire Del Negro • The Los Angeles Clippers have introduced Vinny Del Negro as their coach, two months after he was fired by the Chicago Bulls.

He takes over a Clippers team that went 29-53 last season and missed the playoffs for the 15th time in 17 years.
