Although the terms of his new contract are not yet available, Forbes opted out of his $2.4M player option with Milwaukee late last month, making him an unrestricted free agent.
This move comes amid a bustling free agency period that has resulted in the Spurs signing Doug McDermott, Zach Collins, and Jock Landale while trading DeMar DeRozan to the Bulls for Thaddeus Young, Al-Farouq Aminu, and draft compensation.

The San Antonio Spurs dipped into the free agency pool Monday, agreeing to contracts with forwards Doug McDermott and Zach Collins, according to multiple reports.
McDermott is set to join the Spurs on a three-year, $42-million deal. ESPN reported that Collins, who can also play center, agreed to a three-year, $22-million deal.
The Spurs roster is in flux with DeMar DeRozan expected to test free agency and backcourt sidekick Patty Mills rumored to be in high demand on the open market.
McDermott, 29, should bring a boost to a Spurs roster that finished last in the NBA with 9.9 3-pointers made per game last season. A No. 11 overall draft pick by the Denver Nuggets in 2014, the well-traveled McDermott is a career 40.7 percent 3-point shooter.
T.J. McConnell agrees to 4-year, $35M deal to return to Pacers

As expected, after trading Aaron Holiday to the Washington Wizards on Draft Night, the Indiana Pacers have reached agreement on a four-year, $35 million contract for T.J. McConnell, age 29, to remain with the team, reports The Athletic’s Shams Charania.
McConnell, who was signed two seasons ago as a third-string point guard, won the reserve spot with Aaron playing as an undersized combo guard under Nate McMillan before putting together a career season as a full-court pest within Nate Bjorkgren’s fast-paced, aggressive schemes. Leading the league in total steals while dishing out 10 or more assists in nine games last season, McConnell proved key as a table-setter for both the second unit and some hybrid units, allowing Malcolm Brogdon to gain in-game rest playing off-ball and relieving some of the playmaking burden from Caris LeVert.
