The Kings found a way to keep Beno Udrih in Sacramento despite competition from the Clippers, according to ESPN.com's Chad Ford.

Udrih and the Kings have verbally agreed to terms on a five-year contract worth the full mid-level exception, according to a source.

"I am so happy and honored to be returning to the Kings," Udrih told ESPN.com. "They took a chance on me and believed in me. I can't wait to get back to my teammates and the city that has become home to me."

Mike Dunleavy flew to New York at midnight on Monday night to speak with Udrih, but in the end he decided to remain with Sacramento.
